Green Monster

I discovered the "Green Monster" on Mr. Kate, a fun blog about, health tips, DIY and fashion inspiration.  For those of you who don't know, a green monster is a very yummy and nutritious smoothie usually involving some kind of leafy greens (kale or spinach), fruit and milk of your choice. You can really add anything you want to your green monster, as long as you stick with healthy clean ingredients. By "clean" I mean no added sugars, preservatives, and colors.
Apparently green monsters are pretty popular, and there is even a website dedicated to the movement. So i decided to try it and, I've been drinking my version of a green monster every other day for about two weeks. It's so simple, and you don't even need a fancy juicer, just a regular old blender. Enjoy!
