They are not only healthy, as I've said before, but can be very tasty. I don't know why so many are scared at the thought of mixing fruits and leafy greens in a smoothie.....but I can understand because I was somewhat apprehensive at first.
Never fear, the wonderful Gina at Skinny Taste has tons of amazing, tasty smoothie recipes for us.
This is another one from her and I love it.
