Nourishing Green Smoothie
Even as the mornings get cozier and the weather turns chilly, my love for smoothies stays strong. There’s just something about starting my day with a smoothie that feels grounding—it’s my daily reset button.
Smoothies are my secret weapon for packing in nutrients first thing in the morning, feeding the good bacteria in my gut, and setting the tone for the day ahead. Think greens, vibrant fruits, and omega-packed seeds—all blended into one nourishing powerhouse. ✨
Did you know that adding a green smoothie or juice to your routine is one of the easiest ways to give your gut a little extra love? Greens like kale and spinach are full of prebiotics, which help feed the healthy bacteria in your gut, while ingredients like parsley and hemp seeds bring in detoxifying and anti-inflammatory properties. It’s a small habit that makes a big difference for digestion, energy, and overall well-being.
Here’s what went into today’s smoothie:
What you’ll need:
– 1 cup organic mixed leafy greens (I used kale and spinach)
– 1 bunch organic parsley
– 1/2 organic cucumber, peeled
– 1/2 organic papaya
– 1/2 organic banana
– 1 tbsp hemp seeds
– 1 tbsp chia seeds
– 1 cup filtered water
How to make it:
- Wash the greens, parsley, and cucumber thoroughly. Peel the cucumber, papaya, and banana for a silky-smooth texture.
- Add the leafy greens, parsley, cucumber, papaya, and banana to your blender.
- Sprinkle in the hemp seeds and chia seeds for a boost of omega-3s, fiber, and protein, then pour in the filtered water.
- Blend on high for 1-2 minutes until creamy and fully combined.
This smoothie is like a hug for your gut—a little love in every sip! Whether it’s an energizing breakfast or an afternoon pick-me-up, it’s one of the easiest ways to nourish your body and keep that gut health glowing.
