Glowing Skin Smoothie

I'm often asked what I eat in a day and so I wanted to share my late-morning smoothie with you as I have found this to be my most important meal where I get the largest amount of daily nutritional requirements.

As the day progresses, I like to have the heaviest meal at lunch and a light dinner in preparation for my intermittent fasting cycle. My favorite way to make smoothies, soups and juices these days is with a vita mix so that I can leave the fiber in the smoothie.

GLOWING SKIN SMOOTHIE

2 cups organic no sugar almond milk

1 scoop "Garden Of Life" Protein powder or protein powder of choice

1 tablespoon organic SUPER GREENS powder of your choice

1/4 teaspoon organic moringa powder

Half of an organic banana 

1/4 cup organic coconut water or filtered water

6 large handfuls of spinach or kale

1 teaspoon of MCT Oil

1/4 Teaspoon of Turmeric Powder

1/4 avocado or 1 tablespoon of almond butter (this will make your smoothie very creamy)

DESSERT SMOOTHIE POPSICLE
1 cup frozen organic berry blend (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, cherries)
4 oz plain organic greek yogurt or vegan yogurt
1 cup almond milk

DETOX SMOOTHIE (As shown in picture)
1/2 organic apple
6 stalks of celery
1 cup organic kale
1/2 organic peeled lemon
3 tablespoons flat leaf parsley  (Thought to help rid the body of mercury)
1 tablespoon ground flax seeds or chia seeds
