The Honest Life

MY GO-TO GREEN DRINK
This became my best friend when I was trying to lose the baby weight, but it’s great anytime you feel like you’ve overindulged. It fills you up and is completely packed with nutrients.

1 whole cucumber, peeled and roughly chopped

2 handfuls chopped kale

2 celery sticks, chopped

2 lemons, juiced

2 apples, cored and seeded

1 teaspoon fresh ginger, finely diced

Frozen watermelon or a dash of the natural sweetener stevia or Truvía for sweetness

WHAT TO DO:

Blend well; refrigerate what you don’t drink immediately (makes about 2 servings).
