Green Monster Smoothie

green monster in the am....

and no i'm not referring to myself.  

I actually fancy myself a morning person.  

I love the 'AM.'  

Waking up to the start of a fresh new day seems to energize me naturally.

For those of you non-morning people out there, perhaps, this smoothie will energize you.

You may or may not be aware of something called the Green Monster Movement.  Basically, you blend spinach, fruits, yogurt and nuts to make one powerhouse of a smoothie.  It's an excellent way to get calcium and lots of nutrients from fruits and vegetables into your diet.  All, while sipping on a refreshing, great-tasting smoothie.  Go ahead try it.  Boundless energy awaits you!
