green monster!!!

so my friend Diana over at http://mylittlepart.wordpress.com/ had a wonderful blog entry about green monsters -- she also recommended a number of health blogs to me which i have been obsessively reading for the past week -- it is amazing how nutriciously (is that a word?) people eat! very inspiring and probably better for my waistline than my other obsession: pioneerwoman...

anyway, since i've been trying really hard to incorporate more raw vegetables into my diet, i thought i would give green monsters a spin - if you haven't heard of green monsters, they are basically smoothies to which you add a cup or two of raw spinach... sound strange? well, believe it or not, you actually CAN'T taste the spinach once it is blended up! i was skeptical, but it turns out, it's true!

i would highly recommend trying it out! all you need is:

1) milk or soy milk or almond milk (i've used vanilla almond milk because it is sweeter)

2) fruit: frozen or fresh

3) spinach

4) ice

blend it up and enjoy :) -- i just finished mine and am now off to a spin class!
