Ashley's Go-To Green Drink

This is my favorite smoothie because it's easy, makes me feel full, gets my digestive system flowing, and tastes good! 

Ingredients: 

1/2 cup of water 

1/2 cup of fresh juiced orange juice

1 cup of romain lettuce  

2 cups of spinach 

1 granny smith apple (or pear)

1/2 banana 

1/2 lemon 

1 large handful of parsley 

Directions: 

wash all fruit and veggies

properly cut and core produce 

Place all ingredients in a blender 

pour and serve! 

If you are a juicer, you can use this same recipe just take the banana out and double up on the produce!
