I know, this doesn't look very appetizing. I promise that it tastes way better than it looks. If you can't stand the way it looks go ahead & put it in a sports bottle or a non-see through cup & use a straw. Your body will thank you!
Mango Raspberry Green Smoothie
1 mango (fresh or frozen)
1 cup raspberries (fresh or frozen)
3 handfuls of your favorite greens
1 cup water (more if using both fruits as frozen)
Blend greens with water, add in mango and raspberries, and blend until smooth. Enjoy!

Lemon, Cucumber, and Basil Infused Water
I found this recipe this morning & I just had to make it right away. I'm not a big fan of plain water, so anything that can help bring some life to boring plain water is win in my books! This water is really, really good. Will certainly cool you off while you're sitting in the sun. :)
Lemon, Cucumber, and Basil Infused Water
Original recipe found here
10 thin slices of lemon
10 thin slices of cucumber
10 small leaves of basil, ripped
3-4 cups of water
Put in fridge and let stand for at least 1 hour.

Luscious Pineapple-Orange Salad
This is a very light & refreshing salad! It would be perfect on a scorching hot summer day too. It only takes minutes to prepare, but you'll want to let it set for a few minutes to allow the fruit juices to "dress" the greens. That's right - this is a salad dressing free salad! Don't worry you won't miss it. :) Also this would be really good with sprouts added. I didn't have the foresight to have sprouts made, but next time I will.
Luscious Pineapple-Orange Salad
1 cup chopped pineapple
1 orange (peeled & chopped)
4-5 handfuls of your favorite greens (I used mixed greens and baby spinach)
2 handfuls of your favorite sprouts
Place the greens in a large bowl. Add fruits & sprouts (if using) and mix all together. Allow to sit for a few minutes so the fruit juices can "dress" the greens. Eat slowly & enjoy!

Banana Mango Green Smoothie
It's been a long time since I've posted a new green smoothie recipe. I'm doing a green smoothie detox this week, so plan on sharing some of the new things I make. This is a lovely, creamy green smoothie thanks to the addition of mango. I used a whole celery stick in this green smoothie. If you have never tried using celery in your green smoothies, it does give it a different taste. I really would recommend starting out with a half stick of celery and building up to using more.
Banana Mango Green Smoothie
2 bananas (fresh or frozen)
1 mango (fresh or frozen)
3 large handfuls baby spinach
1 celery stick (use less if new to using celery in smoothies)
1 cup water
Put ingredients in blender in best order for your blender (I do the greens first), use the celery stick to push everything down to the blender blade, eventually blending the celery too.
Enjoy!
