Directions
- Place water, kale and spinach in a blender. Blend until smooth.( The greens get added first so that they get a chance to get super smooth) Add apple, pineapple, banana and optional power boosts. For the Revivelife Pink Power Smoothie add beet (this one is for all of you who don’t do green! )
- Pour your smoothie into glasses/Mason jars and drink immediately or refrigerate in a sealed jar/container for up to 3 days. To make mornings a breeze you can put all ingredients in your blender in the refrigerator the night before, then all you have to do is whirl away in the morning or you can make the night before and pour into Mason jars, leaving 2 inches unfilled at the top to allow for expansion. Next simply freeze and pull out when ready to drink to go! Note it's best to defrost in the refrigerator overnight if you wish to drink in the morning. For the newbies to whole food smoothies (WFS) start with the above recipes and then as you become.
Notes
*Health Buzz: Bee Pollen: Is an energizing and metabolism boosting food nutrient that is rich in protein, free amino acids and B vitamins. It helps to dissolve and flush fat from the body, thanks to its lecithin,( just two tablespoons of bee pollen contains 18% lecithin) and helps to reduce cravings due to its natural phenylalanine content. Your phenylalanine dial responds according to your needs, turning it up if you need to lose weight and getting turned down if you need to gain weight. Bee pollen also helps you glow from the inside out, stimulating cell renewal. Optimally use local sources for best results.
**Health Buzz: Maca: Is a nutrient rich adaptogen (balancer) providing amino acids, Vitamins B, C, E, the minerals calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus and zinc. It supports optimal health power of the adrenal gland, hormonal balance and mood.
You can find both at your local health food store.
