Purple Passion Smoothie: Purple is the New Green Drink

I was so excited to make this drink as a substitute for an evening glass of wine with my hubby that I forgot to photograph the ingredients!!! Oooops.

1/2 cup of Frozen Blueberries
1 cup of Baby Red Leaf Lettuce
1 Cucumber, peeled and chopped
6 Baby Carrots
1 Yellow Apple, sliced and cored
2 cups of Green Tea
Juice and Pulp of one Lemon
Fill container to the top with ice.
Zap on High in the Vita-Mix for 1 minute.
Garnish with a Strawberry.

Now it's time to sit down and relax with our Purple Green Drinks and a movie;)

Healthy Recipe Tip: I mix vegetables and smaller quantities of fruit to avoid a blood sugar spike.
