    I have been drinking green smoothies religiously the last few weeks trying to get over a bug. My go to green smoothie recipe: 2 handfuls spinach + 1/2 container blueberries + 4 counts of orange juice + 4 counts of water + 1 packet stevia. Makes getting my fruit and vegetable servings in so much easier and keeps my energy up throughout the day.
