RECIPE: WHEAT GRASS POWDER SMOOTHIE

this smoothie is completely inspired by the witching hour. last evening, in an effort to get out of our freezing home, we took a drive down the road and ended at our favorite fresh produce and natural foods store. it sits along a road that leads to the ocean and i always seem to find "the best things ever" there. we just walked the aisles (i think you tend to do that a lot as a mama, i'm finding) and i discovered my new favorite fresh juice (i mean, that bottle!) and a few other beautiful ingredients to make stuffed bell peppers. i picked up a little bag of this wheat grass powder knowing the incredible health benefits but not knowing exactly how to use it.

after a little thought, i tried adding it to one of my post work-out smoothies and it is absolutely incredible. it is a subtle flavor and not nearly intense as pure wheat grass juice. it reminds me of matcha green tea.

for this smoothie, i simply blended all these ingredients together, including a large handful of ice. mix until thoroughly blended. 

this recipe makes enough for two large glasses. i gave one to my husband and he said that it is his new favorite smoothie, too. so enjoy ~
