Here's my latest concoction:
1 large slice (about 5 chunks) frozen pineapple
½c cilantro
⅓c parsley
¼ cucumber
1 juice of a lemon
1 sliver/chunk ginger root
1c fresh orange juice
½ dropper of liquid stevia
2 chunks frozen mango
Blend in Vitamix until super smoothe. Life & health doesn't get better than this!!!!!!!
Enjoy!

That sounds great. I have been doing one with water, pineapple, frozen strawberries, tons of spinach, Vega, EFA oil mix, agave and sometimes some other ground seeds. Great way to start our day. Unfortunately my 15 month old used to love green smoothies but is resisting now!

my 18 month old doesn't love green smoothies either, it depends on the day. i now have to just throw in some powdered vitamineral greens to his regular smoothies or vegan raw milkshakes. i also fresh press apple juice and throw in some cucumber (to trick him)! he really hates all green stuff, except for avocado. 😉
thanks Michelle for the comments.

I'm a self-confessed picky vegetarian and all around texture girl. One of my resolutions for 2010 is to be more adventurous and try more things. This green drink you speak of encompasses ingredients I like, but would never actually put together.
With that said, thank you for a healthy, fresh way to ring in the New Year.
