Have you ever put cucumber in a smoothie? Today is the day. Meet Cucumber Winter Smoothie.
This was a delicious smoothie and is filled with plant fiber, protein, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, anti-cancer properties and let’s not forget great flavor.
I lucked out yesterday when we visited Morrow Brothers Produce mart, they had beautiful English cucumbers 2/$1. What!? I know. I bought 4.
Cucumber Winter Smoothie
Ingredients
- 1 cucumber, ends removed and rough chopped
- 2 apples, cored and rough chopped
- 1 cup frozen mango
- 2-4 cups baby spinach (I used 4)
- 1 cup orange juice
- 1 cup water
Instructions
- Add ingredients to a high-speed blender and process until smooth. If using a regular blender just chop the ingredients a little smaller and blend in batches if necessary.
- *Note: I was using one of my smaller blendtec containers and blended the fruit first then added the spinach and finished blending.
