Notes
*not all ingredients are required to make the 'perfect' smoothie {there is no such thing as the perfect smoothie in my world} use what you have on hand and play around with the ingredients/additions until you find what tickles your tastebuds.
**i like to double the ingredients and make 2-3 green smoothies at a time. i pour the leftovers into mason jars and freeze. i let thaw in my fridge overnight so i can grab and go in the morning.
