Important Tips

Storage of Green Smoothies
While fresh is always best, green smoothies will keep in cook temperatures for up to two days, which can be handy at work and while traveling.

Rotation of Greens
The importance of using a variety of greens adds a variety
of nutrients and tastes to your diet.  
This variety makes sure you do not loose your desire for green smoothies.

Any green leafy vegetable can be substituted in all recipes
(see list on front page)
Substitute variety of fruits
in all recipes.

Get creative and make
your own recipes.
