The Live Green Smoothie Diet

This fruity fresh, Warm Live Tea made with mango and strawberries was a big hit with the kids. Whip this smoothie up and warm it in a jiffy and every mango-lover in the house will love you.

This lovely fresh tea looks like raspberry sherbet and isn’t made with tea at all but, like all my Warm Live Teas, is a raw smoothie made with fresh fruit, then gently warmed to a cozy temp… and take all of a couple minutes to whip up! A simple refresher… but with exotic appeal. And [...]

Lately, I’ve been drinking my Live Green Smoothies warm. It’s been soothing, comforting, and energizing, and an excellent beverage in the evenings. This tea, warm but still “raw” (not cooked) and very much “living”, makes an excellent nightcap. The color of a nice juicy shiraz or cabernet, this Blueberry-Grape Warm Live Tea has the kind of [...]

This delicious raw shake is made creamy with avocado, and uses three different berries: blueberry, blackberry, and strawberry. But use whichever combination of berries is handy, fresh, and on sale! Loaded with antioxidants, naturally low-glycemic, and “rib-sticking” due to the avocado, remember the next time you’re feeling peckish for “I don’t know what”. It’s so [...]

All berries are very low in sugar, so I tell all my clients not to use them as the primary fruit in a Live Green Smoothie, because they just won’t have enough sweetness to carry through — they will be too tart. Paired with zucchini, however, and they seem to shine! The zucchini provides a [...]

Mono-Smoothies simply rawk! I haven’t been so excited about something related to food since the advent of Live Green Smoothies. They are easy, cheap, fast… and did I say cheap? For anyone who is on a tight budget and still wants to eat maximally healthy, adding some Mono-Smoothies every day will definitely make a difference! [...]

This recipe is for my non-teetotaler readers. Enjoy without booze if you prefer, but the recipe below is for a nice pitcher of antioxidant-rich “Weekend’s Here” festivity. Made with fresh raspberries and blueberries, this lovely blended vodka “martini” is refreshing and just-sweet-enough. A nice way to enjoy the end of the work week. [private] Recipe for: Mixed Berry “Martini” A Lovely [...]

Oh, aloe, aloe, where have you been all my life. Crikey, I may have to rename this site the Aloe Smoothie Diet if I keep this up. I’m so in love with how fresh aloe feels energetically when I drink it, and it makes the most wonderfully delicate smoothies! If you’re into juice feasting, you [...]

  The perfume of rose infused with the sweetness of watermelon and the tartness of raspberries… it’s a deliciously romantic marriage. Simple, easy, a feast for the eyes, and a heady experience for the remaining senses. This recipe makes enough for one…but you know you’re going to have to double it for a special *someone* [...]

This is one of my favorite salads, a staple in the summer! I keep sun-cured black olives on hand (which I’ve marinated myself in cold-pressed Greek olive oil and Himalayan Crystal salt) for just this purpose. It is just bursting with the sweetness of the watermelon and fresh raspberries, which is highlighted beautifully by the [...]
