I recently bought celebrity nutritionist Kimberly Snyder's book The Beauty Detox Foods. Some of her ideas on nutrition make sense to me and some seem a bit radical - as with most diet/life style books. One thing I love about her diet is the Glowing Green Smoothie recipe. It promotes clear skin, strong hair and nails and an overall beauty glow. I've started having one every day for breakfast. The below makes enough for 6. I make the large batch on Sunday and freeze in BPA free plastic water bottles. Each night I take one out to thaw for the next day. Easy!
Ingredients
4 cups cold, filtered water
2 heads of romaine lettuce
2 bunches of spinach
4 celery stalks
2 apples (cored)
2 pears (cored)
2 bananas
1 juiced lemon
1 bunch cilantro
1 bunch parsley
A Vitamix is recommended but I used a Cuisineart Standard Blender and it worked fine - just roughly chop everything before you blend.
