This green apple smoothie is great, I make it all the time. It’s an easy way to get in two vegetable servings, with two cups of spinach, and using an apple and the juice of a lemon.

You’re going to use one red delicious apple, you can use any kind of apple you’d like. I think red delicious are the sweetest.

Next, you’re going to add two cups of spinach. You can chop it up, but I actually just like to jam pack it in there. You’re going to use the juice of half a lemon, add ice, and water. And from there, just blend. This will count as two veggies servings and one SmartCarb serving.
