Healthy Greens Breakfast Smoothie
There are a lot of green smoothie recipes out there. What makes this one great is that it is so delicious and there is so little prep. Most of the “green” in this Healthy Greens Breakfast Smoothie recipe comes from the V8® Fruit & Vegetable Blends Healthy Greens. Frozen pineapple adds sweetness and avocado makes it creamy. We love the addition of freshly grated ginger – it adds a bit of warm spice that really makes it different (and we think better!) than your average green smoothie recipe. Try Healthy Greens Breakfast Smoothie – it’s both healthy and delicious.
