Lovely Greens Smoothie

I know, green smoothies can be scary, but they’re really much tastier than most would think, especially with the addition of fruits like pineapple and grapes. When you consume a green smoothie, you know that you are getting all the nutrition you need for the day and to kick butt during your workout sesh!

When creating a healthy smoothie, the best way to get something that is both healthy and delicious is by combining fruit with tea. I love green tea, blueberry, and banana together. Instead of a tea flavor, you will get more of a juicy taste.

2 Tsp Honey

1 1/2 cup frozen blueberries

1/2 med banana
