veggie smoothy

Post by snowbirdie »

Hi all.
    I am not a smoothie fan but decided to try one this morning.  I was thinking about having some carrot juice so thats how it started.
                      1 large carrot washed and peeled
                      3 leaf lettuce leaves
                      1 very large red swiss chard leaf minus hard stem
                      1/2 knorr beef cube
                      1 cup water
                      1 5 ounce can tomatoe juice
I placed all ingredients in the vitamix and whirled till smooth. It sure was good. But if you dont like a sharp taste maybe the chard would be too much for you. But I really like chard. It sure is an ugly color. Ha ha

I had one of these in the health food store one day & it cost me $8.00.  It tasted good, though.  I think they added some raw garlic to the one I had.

gwennie,
      I didn't think about the garlic. I love garlic! Maybe a scallion added would be good too. Anyway  yummy. mikey came down stairs and said umm what is this? He finished it up right away. So I guess I will have to make it again.    Judie
