Green Smoothie with Pear


This was something I saw on Martha Stewart's show. I modified it slightly as I do with every recipe...

I love mason jars to drink from and store extra smoothie in, try to drink when freshly made has more nutrition that way.

1 Pear(scoop or cut out core seeds)
1/3 small cucumber
juice of a half lemon
1/2 inch pc of ginger root(you can leave skin on if it is organic and fresh)
small handful baby spinach or 1 lg leaf dino kale
1 small stalk celery

Wash fruit and veggies well. Blend all the ingredients up with 1/4-1/2 cup water and 4-5 ice cubes. Drink to your health!

  2. Britt,

    I am in NY but I have to say I got the mason jar idea from a woman at the local farmers market, she used it to bring her morning coffee to work with her, I thought what a great idea. Hot liquids/cold liquids, traveling well because of the seal. I buy jellies at the farmers market and reuse the jars. I don't think the woman was from teh South but I'm not positive about that...
