The Making of My Little Pick Me Up…

 

One of the things I like to make to help energize me or to have for a snack or breakfast is called “Green Monster”.  A Green Monster is a shake that I discovered on the website www.ohsheglows.com  A Green Monster consists of:

1 Tbsp of Flax Seeds

1 Tbsp of Chia Seeds

3/4 cup milk (soy, almond, cow, whatever)

2 cups or two handfuls of spinach

1 banana

handful of ice

Put everything into a blender, mix, and then enjoy!

First put the Flax Seeds and Chia Seeds into the blender.

I use Chia Seeds that I found at Old Fashioned Foods.

(sorry about the lighting!)

Then add the spinach…

I bought my spinach at Sobeys called Botanical Organic Spinach.

Then add the milk.  I use So Good Soy Milk.

Add the banana…

Then mix in the blender…

Once blended, add the ice…

Then blend until ice is crushed and viola…

A perfect “Green Monster”!!!

 

This is my brother trying a “Green Monster”…

  He’s not too sure about it…

  He’s having a sip of it…

  Success!  He likes it!!!
