Description
I set out to use the cabbage in my smoothie but made sure to include my go-to green smoothie ingredients – ginger and lemon – as well. Ginger and lemon are my favorite add-ins because they seem to blend well with all different kinds of fresh fruits and vegetables.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 apple, chopped
- 1 large carrot, chopped
- 1 fresh beet, washed, scrubbed and cut into wedges
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1/2 small head of cabbage, core removed
- 1 large handful fresh kale
- Fresh ginger, to taste (I used four relatively thin slices of fresh ginger)
- 1 1/2 cups cold water (may use more or less to reach desired consistency)
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a high-powered blender
- Blend until everything is completely smooth and thin enough to to drink through a straw
