View Full Version : Savory Green Smoothies aka Liquid Salads
Spam me... with your favorite recipes for Savory Green Smoothies aka Liquid Salads. I have the book Green for Life which has a few recipes but I have yet to try one that is REALLY good. I'm currently drinking 2 green smoothies a day: breakfast and dinner but use a good amount of fruit which I just can't afford right now. I'd really like to drop down to one Green Smoothie for breakfast and have a Savory Green Smoothie for dinner. So... please share some of your Savory Smoothie creations!
THANKS BUNCHES!

Step 1) chop up ingredients for a salad that you would normally eat
Step 2) place all ingredients in a blender and blend
Step 3) enjoy your liquid salad!
