green smoothie: the best breakfast

My favorite breakfast to begin with energetic and fit is a green smoothie. The best breakfast of course does not really exist, and that day may be different if you listen to your body. In the summer, you may just have a green smoothie and in the winter you will (then) maybe a hot porridge. I own a small morning ritueeltje built where I feel comfortable with. I start with a freshly squeezed vegetable juice, then take an hour later, a green smoothie, and then if I still have an appetite I take porridge or something else. But in this article I am going to talk about the green smoothie.

Maybe you've never heard of, or would you really dirty. You can make it as dirty or nice as you want.But if you do it right, it tastes very good for fruit and you have no idea that you get a whole load of (leaf) vegetables inside. A green smoothie is a smoothie of raw green leafy vegetables, fresh fruit, water, and possibly a superfood. You the best drink on an empty stomach so that all nutrients are well opgenomen.Verder are raw leafy vegetables and fruits very easily digestible. That's fine in the morning. You can be as fruity or green smoothie you make as you want. For beginners, 70% fruit and 30% vegetables properly to begin with, the diehards might opt for 50/50 or 30/70.

Green smoothie in 4 steps

Step 1: Choose two or more types of fruit, whatever you want everything can and is good through your smoothie, try to eat as many seasonal fruits.. My personal favorites are banana, mango, strawberry, raspberry, apple, orange, cranberries and blueberries. I often buy fresh fruit and freeze it in (bananas, strawberries and berries are good for that) so I have a nice cold smoothie.

Step 2: Choose a leaf vegetable, you can use all leafy greens in your green smoothie, most important is to make every day another to choose so that the toxic dust from the leafy vegetables (to protect themselves) do not accumulate in your body, but the chance. have to break so they will not harm you are off. The best leafy greens for the green smoothie that is not too overbearing flavors: Spinach, all kinds of lettuce, leaves of beetroot, carrot tops of little, bok choy, lettuce, watercress, winter station line

Step 4: Moisture: You can water into your smoothie but alternate example cooled green tea, nuts, milk, coconut water or juice, for example, oranges, lemon, grapefruit are delicious. Officially make a green smoothie with some water, but I personally do not like rules and just do what I like
