Lots of ingredients translate to lots of nutrients! A great way to fuel and nurture your body
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup (125 mL) fresh red grapefruit juice
1 cup (25 g) destemmed kale or baby spinach
1 large sweet apple (200 g), cored and roughly chopped
1 cup (130 g) chopped cucumber
1 medium/large celery stalk (85 g), chopped (about 3/4 cup)
3 tablespoons (30 g) hemp hearts, or to taste
1/3 cup (55 g) frozen mango
2 tablespoons (4 g) packed fresh mint leaves
1 1/2 teaspoons (7.5 mL) virgin coconut oil (optional)
4 ice cubes, or as needed
DIRECTIONS
Juice a red grapefruit and add 1/2 cup grapefruit juice to the blender.
Now add the kale (or spinach), apple, cucumber, celery, hemp, mango, mint, coconut oil (if using), and ice. Blend on high until super smooth. You can add a bit of water if necessary to get it blending.
Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately! This makes enough for a large glass with some leftover so you can also divide it into two servings and save one for later.
