Green smoothies with yummy "stuff" on top

Inspired by some of the vegan green smoothie loving peeps I follow on Instagram I've started topping my green smoothies...well all my smoothies with yummy "stuff." This one is organic kale micro-greens fresh pressed organic apple juice and organic banana, it is topped with coconut shreds, organic cacao nibs and chia seeds on top.

Juice Recipe: Orange Spinach Basil Smoothie

This is a delicious and refreshing smoothie ideal for a breakfast pick me up.

I discovered this recipe on the wonderful YouTube Channel, Fully Raw by Kristina Carrillo-Bucaram . When I happened upon this recipe, I knew I had to give it a try and now,  I am officially hooked! I realize this is more of a summertime drink but that's OK with me! For me, this is a very refreshing, wonderful morning pick me up breakfast smoothie. 

I made three changes to this recipe, because this was a juice for one, I used 10oz of fresh squeezed orange juice and, 1/2 cup of spinach. I also added one whole lemon to the juice. I added the lemon simply because I enjoy lemon in my juices, I include them in almost every recipe!  Give this juice recipe a try, I think you will be hooked too! Let me know what you think!
