These are full of vitamins and minerals and are so delicious (if you can get past the color!! you will enjoy it-I promise! You can't even taste the spinach....AT ALL!!) Spinach has calcium, protein, lots of vitamin A, iron, vitamin C, antioxidants,etc. etc.
6 oz. pomegranate juice or any juice (cranberry is great too)
6 oz. water
1 cup frozen fruit (Costco has a frozen mango, etc. combo that is good)
2 cups spinach leaves (fresh leaves)
1/8 lemon, including peel (optional)
ice if needed
Don't use the lemon unless you have a really good blender (like a BlendTec or Vitamix). It won't chop it up fine enough. Blend well and drink up!
You can tweak this to find a combination that you love. I tried one today where I used green grapes in place of juice, just spinach and mixed fruit with 1/8 lemon and a little water. It was one of the best ones yet. Kelly Smith says she just mixes frozen spinach with water and then adds in strawberries.
