We have an awesome organic farm right in the middle of Austin. They have so many greens. I totally over buy. I'd like some ideas on smoothies with some of the greens I bought.
French sorrel has a lemony, sour flavor. I did berries and bananas and it was great. But I think it could be better. I was thinking a green lemonade maybe. Apples maybe?
Then there's the arugula. I'm kind of scared to blend it up. I don't like it in salads. Anybody know what might by tasty with that?
I've been having really good luck with my greens and I'm not creative at all. I have recipe books but I'm kind of lazy. I blended up this giant radicchio last week and it made the smoothie taste like Nyquil! Not good. But after it was in the fridge for awhile it mellowed out and was drinkable.
Anyhoo, my french sorrel smoothie was so good I wanted to reach out and see if anybody had come up with a recipe for it. I'm going to have to truck it to the market tomorrow and get me some more:p
Post interesting greens and smoothie recs here:D
