Refreshing Ugly Speckled Green Smoothie

What sort of name is that, you are probably wondering, yes?

It's a truthful name. Because one: it's refreshing in taste; two:it refreshing, a.k.a detoxifying, to the body; and three: it's an ugly green colour with speckles in it from the seeds of fruit.

That is one serving in that photo, there, my friends (and that's after I've had taste tested a couple, few bites). And it's only 160 calories! 

I know! It's crazy! "Only 160 calories for THAT MUCH! You've got to be kidding me!"

I, for one, am not kidding. But I must warn you that if you don't have a agreeing taste buds that are adventuresome and open to new tastes without telling you it's "gross!" Like my sister. ;)

The recipe:

About 2 cups of frozen spinach

5 frozen Cucumber slices
4 frozen Celery slices/chunks (equivalent to one celery stalk)
1/2 cup frozen Pineapple chunks
1/2 cup frozen Peach slices
1/2 cup frozen Strawberries
2 cups Unsweetened Almond Milk (I used Silk brand)
2-3 dashes/dumps of Ground Cinnamon

Oh, I had this for supper last night, so I could have some dessert later that night of Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookie Dough without going overboard on my calorie intake for the day and gain weight - that would not be good. Hence, I am grateful for the detoxifying foods I can throw in a blender and make yummy smoothies with! ;)
