This veggie smoothie is my new favorite way to start a day, so refreshing, hydrating, and an amazing way to get the proper dose of greens into the system. I used to be a bit afraid of putting too many veggies in smoothies and juices and started this one with some mango and orange juice added but once I tried skipping all the fruit actually realized this version is waaay fresher. You can easily make it as a juice as well, although blender does preserve the fibre of the veggies so it is a bit more nutritious, but packed with vitamins even as a juice for sure.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 smaller or 1/2 large cucumber, peeled, seeds removed
• 2 medium celery stalks
• 3 large kale leaves
• handful of ice
• juice of 2 limes
• 1,5 dcl coconut water

METHOD:

1. Peel the cucumber, remove its seeds and chop it into chunks.
2. wash the celery stalks, remove the white thick bottom part and the leaves and chop into chunks as well.
3. Tear the leafy kale parts of the stems and put all the veggies into a blender. Squeeze the limes, add coconut water and ice.
4. Blend for a minute or two, depending on the settings of your blender.
