KJ’s Slime-ade Recipe
Delicious and refreshing. And, according to my sister, gives you an energetic little pick-me-up!
4 cups raw baby spinach
1 medium tomato, quartered
1 yellow (or red) bell pepper, quartered
1 pear (seeds and all), quartered
1/2 bunch cilantro
1/2 tsp cumin
1 cup of water, to blend
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Green Tabasco Sauce, to taste
Freshly squeezed lemon (optional)
Using a high-speed blender, add the high-water foods in first: the tomato, the pepper, the pear, and the water.
Blend until relatively smooth.
Add the rest of the ingredients: the spinach, the cilantro, the cumin, the pepper, and the Tabasco.
If you’re feeling particularly adventurous, add some lemon – or better yet, some lime!
Blend until smooth.
This may require that you stop the blender and push things down and start again.
This makes about a quart of yummy green nutrition. Bottoms up!
[...] My favorite to date, is sort of Mexican-y and smells a little bit like a summer garden. Check out the details here. [...]
