Refreshing Celery with Pear Smoothie
Smoothies, the short cut to add the ideal amount of fruits and vegetables each day are my go to afternoon snack. The combinations, possibilities are endless, and you can get creative with your imagination in designing the smoothies.
Peeling the fruits decreases the fiber potential, which I usually don’t do for my smoothies. Pick your color, find the ingredients and let the blender do the work. Smoothie can be a snack or a meal, depending on the content. If you have diabetes or trying to loose weight, try to limit pure fruit smoothies and add more greens, vegetables to avoid the sudden sugar spike. Fruit loaded smoothies are great before workout or any energy consuming activity
This one is light, crisp, fresh with right amount of touch of sweetness. A perfect blend of pear, kiwi, celery and few grapes makes it irresistibly refreshing .
