A green smoothie is a mixture of fruits and green vegetables or herbs such as lettuce, parsley, ginger or even carrot tops. This is known to be very healthy as it provides you with all the required nutrients. It is a fun and easy way to increase your vegetable intake. Know at least one green smoothie recipe.

One of the most popular ones is the blue berry banana. The ingredients are in the title; a banana, one and a half cups soy milk, seven or eight ice cubes, one cup fresh blue berries. Put all these together and blend for about thirty seconds or till the right consistency. This is a great recipe especially for children because it tastes great.

Another recipe to try is the vegan one. For this you need two bananas, one bunch spinach, one cup orange juice, one big mango and about eight ice cubes. Crush the cubes then blend the ingredients to a suitable consistency.

For those obsessed with organic foods, this recipe is a must. Ingredients are a banana, vanilla soy milk, avocado, mango all organic chopped and blended together. Use ice cubes to make it nice and cold.

The chocolate and mint one is also great particularly for people who love chocolate. You will require fresh mint, chocolate, a banana, soy milk and ice cold water. Some of these ingredients can be substituted. Blend them and serve cold.

The kale and pear smoothie also works wonders. Get a peeled orange, a pear, a bunch of kale, banana, ice cubes and water. You can substitute any of the fruits or vegetables to suit your taste. Blend and serve cold.

If you are a beginner or you want to serve children, presentation matters. Add a slice of their favorite fruit to go with the smoothie and they will never tell the difference. This is guaranteed to go down well with everyone.

These green recipes are not so rigid; you can make your own. Just make sure you blend the greens and fruit in a one to one ratio. Make healthy eating fun for everyone.
