My new favorite… creamy but light, gingery and fresh… just wonderful. And what a gorgeous shade of spring green! Definitely appropriate for the season, with the trees still springing into that lovely “green haze” before all the leaves pop full out.

Utterly pedestrian ingredients picked up fresh at your local grocer’s yield such a surprisingly pleasant green smoothie. It’s another one of those recipes that makes me wonder, why didn’t I know about Live Green Smoothies earlier?

Enjoy!
