Mmm, doesn't that just scream yummy!!!! Whenever I start feeling icky and sluggish, in addition to making sure I'm taking vitamins and exercising, I also tend to jump start things by blending and juicing. This green smoothie is one of my go-to drinks that's quick to make. Now, it may look nasty but, it really does taste good. And, it's chock full of some really healthy stuff!
