Green Smoothies

Hello Foodies,

It's come to the time of year where I like to do smoothie detoxes in preparation to working out and doing more outdoor activities. That is if the weather holds up.

Here are some of my recipes, feel free to modify it as much as you want it's all about personal taste too.
