Key Lime Smoothie

Raw green smoothies are great for absorbing key ingredients from plant foods such as iron and calcium which are not highly absorbed by the body when the greens are cooked.

There are times, especially after a grueling workout, when a meal is too much and real food just isn't appealing.

Your body craves something, however, and it deserves - needs - some nourishment.

That's when a nutrient rich smoothie can do the trick.

This one is simple, yet so delicious, one might even feel guilty!

But don't....the smoothie is gluten-free, egg-free and dairy-free.

Ingredients
serves 2

1 c coconut milk
1 c ice
1/2 avocado
1 kiwi
zest and juice of 2 limes
handful of baby spinach (totally optional, but why not?)
raw honey to taste

In a food processor, blender or vitamix, blend all ingredients until smooth.

Drink.
