Green Monster

This morning I made my first Green Monster. This definitely counts toward my goal of trying new things as I had no idea how it was going to turn out.

While I was getting the ingredients out of the fridge, all I could think was: Wow, I really want to be healthy!

I’ve read about Green Monsters on healthy living and food blogs and decided to try one to try and get more veggies in my diet. Here’s how it went:

Blended:
1 c plain light Silk
1 c raw spinach
1 frozen banana
½ cup fresh pineapple

Looked at the blender skeptically.

That spinach sure is leafy.

Can this possibly be good?

Wow, that’s green.

Tentative sip.

Wow, that’s good!

Wait, really?

Sips again.

Yes.

It’s true — you can’t even taste the spinach!

I drank the entire thing on my way to work and want to make another one tomorrow!
