St. Patrick's Day Green Smoothie


Ok, so most of my smoothies are green in color, since it's such a great way to sneak some immune-boosting greens into my diet, but this one I give it the name, well, because tomorrow is St. Patrick's Day!

It's so refreshing, and loaded with all the good things.  So ditch the artificial coloring this St. Patrick's Day, and enjoy this naturally green, high in vitamin K, fiber-rich smoothie!

And..

Top o' the mornin' to ya!
