IC Green Smoothie
Ingredients:
1 Thai coconut (use water & meat)
1 pear (or apple if you can tolerate it)
1 banana
3 stalks of celery
1-2 cups of spinach
1 tbsp chia seeds
Instructions:
1. Put all ingredients inside blender and blend! May need to add in some water if there is problems blending.
Suggestions:
Coconut: It's hard to always have a fresh coconut, so sometimes I use IC friendly coconut milk or coconut water from a carton. I find that a fresh coconut makes the smoothie taste the best!
Seeds: I currently use chia seeds, since I just learned of this super food's positive benefits. But I've also used flax meal and I'm sure you could get creative and add in other seeds, nuts, powders, etc.!
Healthy breakfast: This is a great, healthy way to start your day! Ever since I started drinking 1 green smoothie a day, I've experienced many positive health benefits, including extreme IC pain reduction. :)
