I started out this am with a 35 minute walk, and then back to the house for a smoothie. I had initially intended to use kale as my greens, but I saw a bag of salad mix in the fridge that needs to be used up within the next couple of days, so I used that instead. I also added one banana, an apple, 2 tbsp currants (for sweetener), and some vanilla protein powder. The color of your smoothie will take on the color of the greens you use, so expect a variation of colors when you make your smoothies. And some fruits will enhance the colors too. Don't worry if the color isn't a rich green. As long as you know you have your greens in there, it's all good!
I do not have my 'real' blender yet. I used a household blender this am, so the results ARE different. I did not acquire the real smooth texture that I know I will get from the Blend-Tec. The currants did not break down completely, so I felt tiny specks on my tongue. Not too big of a deal. At the end of the day, as long as you get the fruits and veggies in, you're good.
