Green Pops!



What do you do when there's extra green smoothie left over?  GREEN POPS!


My daily dose of green smootie consists of:

12 oz - Unsweetened Soymilk (can split in half in replacement of water, but it tastes so much creamier with full dose of soymilk)
1 Cup - Kale, packed (substitute w/ Mustard Greens, Chard, Cilantro, Spinach)
1 Cup - Spinach, packed (substitute w/ arugula - gives it a nutty & earthy flavor)
1 Tbsp - Chia Seeds
1 tsp - Flaxseed (has a distinctive flavor, you may or may not like this)
2 - Persian Cucumber
2 - Peaches, rippened
1 - Banana, rippened (perfect sweetener to the mix)

Blend this altogether, serve approximately 32 - 40 oz.  I usually have 6 oz of this stuff as part of the breakfast (makes me full), save the 10 oz for late snack in the day.  My David drinks the rest of his share in the morning, I make the second batch above where mom gets one 16 oz in the morning and the other half is David's snack  of the late day :D.  Yum!
