Green Smoothie!

I got inspired this morning by my friend Adrien to make a green smoothie.  She often makes green smoothies and posts on Facebook about what she's put it them.  I decided to try my hand at one as I had a couple "odd" greens that needed some using.

I added in a bunch of radish greens (had never eaten those before), a good handful of misc greens from our CSA farm at Portage River Farms, 1 avocado, 1 small yellow mango, some lemon juice, ice and water.

It made about 4 - 8oz cups.  Enough to share, although the kids weren't interested.  I got to drink about 2.5 cups before my daughter came by and spilled it. :-/  The rug must have needed a little chlorophyl this morning.

Next time I should attempt to make a smoothie my kids will drink, or at least try.
