Healthy Green Smoothie
I discovered Healthy Green Smoothie when my friend told me that she and her husband were on this smoothie diet.
Healthy Green Smoothie
So this smoothie does take care few of the leftovers like the cucumber, ½ the apple but the spinach or palak is fresh. Next time I will add some raw hemp seeds to increase the Amino and Omega-fatty acids, fibre and protein.
I made this smoothie and to stop eating junk food. With this healthy Green smoothie I will stop feeling drained and gaining weight too. By the way this smoothie is supposed to give you glowing skin, shiny hair too. Am I too greedy to want them back again? Only my silvery mane should not blind someone!! LOL!!
Thanks to Amrita we are focusing on #185GlowingSkinRecipes this Monday in the FoodieMondayBlog Hop. Amrita blogs at the Food Samaritan and she tells beautiful stories with her food. Thanks to Amrita I am thinking about me and myself. Thought I joked in our group that I cannot get glowing skin in this life I was not always blessed with dull skin. I am brown but never dull. Makes me want to sit up and look at myself. I am already exercising but food, food that is where I put myself last.

My idea is to make this smoothie as often as possible before we start getting withered greens. Hopefully by the time I have my energy levels will be back to normal and things will be better.
Green Smoothie for a Glowing Skin
Smoothies and mocktails they are something that we love to have once the heat begins. I have not tried many smoothies but the few that I have made are loaded with flavours
- Avocado Milkshake
- Delicious Mango Shake
- Bridal Shower for Nithya: Custard Apple Shake
- Tender Coconut Falooda
- Thandai, How to make Sardai, Thandai for Holi #CookoutWeek
- Papaya Smoothie
- Beetroot Smoothie
Actually, Green Smoothie is from green leafy vegetables on one part and fruits on the other. The vegetables regularly used are spinach, kale, swiss chard, collard greens, celery, parsley, or broccoli. The bitter taste of the leafy vegetables is masked by the use of fruits like bananas.
Glowing Skin Green Smoothie
You may add water, crushed ice, fruit juice, honey, sugar, syrup, milk, yoghurt, low-fat or cottage cheese, whey powder, nuts, nut butter, seeds, tea, chocolate, herbal supplements, or nutritional supplements. The options are endless and suit them to your taste.
I used the recipe from here to make my Green Smoothie.

Poonam Bachhav says
Have yet to get used to the taste of raw spinach di, your green smoothie looks a perfect one to start with.
ArchanaPotdar says
Poonam, raw spinach tastes good. Try it as a salad with garlic first.
Vidya Narayan says
This is a perfect recipe for detox or cleansing. Tall glasses of this juice and I can imagine some serious health benefits and great skin too. Arch, loved the clicks.. keep them coming!
ArchanaPotdar says
Vidya thank you. Your comment on the pictures makes me smile ear to ear. In fact, hubby is wondering just what I am reading. 😀
Mayuri Patel says
Raw spinach is the best for overall healthiness. However, its difficult to consume it raw on its own. Adding to salads, drinks makes it more palatable. Here you’ve used apple and cucumber to make it extra healthy. Now that’s a perfect smoothie to wake up to everyday.
ArchanaPotdar says
Thank you, Mayuri.
Preethi Prasad says

ArchanaPotdar says
Thank you, Preethi.
Sujata Roy says
This green smoothie looks delicious. Loved the bright green colour. Mixed taste of spinach, cucumber and apple must be great. Super healthy share.
ArchanaPotdar says
Thanks, Sujata.
Veena Krishnakumar says
This is one smoothie I have never tried as yet. Will try it asap as I have some homegrown palak and want to use it judiciously. Lovely recipe
ArchanaPotdar says
Homegrown Palak? Wow! I am honoured.
Shobha Keshwani says
This sure looks healthy and loaded with nutrition. I like the addition of apple as it lends the sweetness and balances the flavours. Lovely colour too.
ArchanaPotdar says
Thanks, Shobha.
Neha says
Nice vibrant colour Smoothie. Im sure the apple must have enhanced its taste. Thanks for such a wonderful sharing.
ArchanaPotdar says
Thanks, Neha.
Chef Mireille says
so goes the saying we are what we eat! Not only is this good but good for you. Though I cant wrap my tastebuds around savory drinks so I add a pinch of sugar instead of a punch of salt.
ArchanaPotdar says
Yes, I agree you will find it difficult to have something that is not sweet. We cannot do so first thing in the morning.
Mayuri Patel says
Often I make healthy green smoothie with spinach being the star ingredient. I vary the fruit of vegetables added for different flavour. It definitely is a versatile smoothie recipe and healthy too.
