...I love the color green, but I've never been a fan of green drinks.
that smoothie looks so so healthy. I didn't know those flow-ers were named Snowdrops. I saw some at an air BNB last year and even took their photo but didn't know the name.
I must admit that I've never tried a green smoothie before.
send one over, yum!
I don't think I have ever had a smoothie. A gap in my culinary education.
Love the snowdrops.
It's been a long time since I've had a smoothie.
I make green smoothies, not keto but still yummy!
I've never tried a green smoothie. Thanks for the list on how to customize. And the snowdrops are so pretty.
There is no way my husband would eat this, sadly.
I do this from time to time indeed - easiest way to have an avo for me.
Ohhhh.... I miss the Schneegloeckchen (haha, snowdrop, so easy to translate!) this year, thanks for sharing the beautiful harbinger of spring!
Thanks so much for the recipe! I am always looking for a good smoothie to try and this one sounds delicious!!
This looks good but I just don't know if I could drink it...LOL The hubster and I do a protein shake every day but have never included anything green! :-) Have a great one! Hugs!
Not into smoothies at all.
Green drink never appeal to me but this does have a lot of my favourite things in it
We have a few snowdrops in our garden but they aren't growing as well as usual
Have a great day
Love Chrissie xx
Worth trying ... intriguing!
God bless.
That does sound tasty. I often start the day with a smoothie. Mine, and this may sound strange, usually consists of banana, baby-leaf spinach and almonds. Sometimes I chuck in a bit if vegan yogurt just for good measure.
Love green smoothies, lots of cucumber and spinich, spirellina, avocado, pears,the list is endless, but I just add water to mine xcx
Very very good article...
Veryyyyyy... Helpful
never used the avocado, but have seen it used in cooking for oil
I was hoping for snopwdrops 2 days ago, but then................snow came :(
Nice.
I'll pass this on to a friend of mine who uses the Keto diet.
Thanks so much Jan! Sounds excellent!
