Have you done the green smoothie thing?\u00a0 Getting started with these healthy drinks can take some experimentation.\u00a0 Fortunately, our very own Becky Striepe <\/a>breaks it down for us in her brand new ebook, 40 Days of Green Smoothies<\/a>.\u00a0 Becky gives us everything from shopping lists to recipes to helpful tips, making going green easy and super do-able.<\/p>\n The point of drinking green smoothies is to get the green in your diet \u2013 easily, tastily, and healthfully.\u00a0 Veggies can seem like the toughest food item to get enough of, and they are what we need the most.\u00a0\u00a0 Packed full of vital nutrients, protein and even calcium, this fibrous food group is essential.<\/p>\n My first venture with green smoothies was last year, and it came with pros and cons.\u00a0 Pros:\u00a0 getting in more of the green stuff, feeling great, getting to drink breakfast (or lunch\u2026).\u00a0 Cons:\u00a0 buying fresh produce every few days, having some not-so-yummy outcomes, and same old every day.<\/p>\n If I\u2019d had 40 Days of Green Smoothies<\/em> <\/a>back then, the experience would have been a lot different.\u00a0 First off, I would have had a produce buying plan, which would have helped immensely.\u00a0 Becky shares a list for the beginning of each week.\u00a0 You purchase the items that last at the very beginning (flax meal, chia seeds), frozen fruit lasts because it is, well, frozen, and you just restock a few perishables at the beginning of each week.\u00a0 Easy and affordable, not to mention efficient.<\/p>\n Then there are the recipes.\u00a0 Becky provides you with a new flavor combo every day for 6 weeks, to get you going and keep things interesting.\u00a0 Do you eat the same thing for breakfast every day?\u00a0 Me too.\u00a0 Wouldn\u2019t it be fun to have something new each morning, especially something that seems like a treat?\u00a0 I\u2019m in! No more staring down the barrel of something that tastes vaguely of apple and significantly of kale.<\/p>\n Becky\u2019s recipes include everything from cocoa to mango, all with that special green ingredient goodness.\u00a0 My favorite is week #3 when we add fresh ginger.\u00a0 And the recipes are all vegan.<\/p>\n Even kids will love these smoothies.\u00a0 A green smoothie may scare them off, but one that tastes like chocolate banana or tropical smoothie \u2013 they\u2019ll be all over it.<\/p>\n Becky has taken the guess work out of creating fabulous green smoothies.\u00a0 Super yummy, budget-friendly, and oh so good for you.\u00a0 Great for holiday gifting and New Year\u2019s resolution-ing.\u00a0 Get your copy of 40 Days of Green Smoothies for iPad<\/em> <\/a>today.
