Re: Getting a litte braver...

go on Youtube and search out green smoothies and you will get even more

adventurous. I also have found that my taste has adjusted. First time out a

whole carrot was too much and now it is fine.

would be fond of it. It actually grossed my husband out looking at it. I used

a small orange, 1/2 banana, 1 carrot, a handful of spincach, a little water, and

some ice cubes. The consistency was good and the taste was good - but that

color.... not so good. :-) Each day I try a little something different, some

I'll try again, some not.

Gosh, I know what you mean about the color. The first time I made a " green "

smoothie for my husband and me, it looked pretty purplish brown. We were both

very skeptical that this would be something we could actually consume. So, I

turned to him and held up my glass and said, " Here's mud in your eye! " We both

cracked up. At any rate, it tasted good! After that, I haven't worried about the

color and rather enjoy seeing what shade of purple, green or red I come up with.

I, too, no longer worry about getting everything just right. I use what I have,

and it always tastes great.
