Don’t know about you, but I’m still full from my December feasting and needing a post-holiday overhaul. I don’t do liquid diets or juice fasts, but I do love the way green smoothies make me feel, especially when I’ve been feeding my body straight sugar for the last month. This smoothie is packed with good stuff, and don’t forget to freeze your bananas (it’s a smoothie game changer). Start your New Years day with this guy and I promise you’ll feel brand new.

I love me a green smoothie! I fluctuate between healthy and unhealthy eating but green smoothies always kick me right back on track. Thanks for sharing this! Looks delicious!
Beautiful photos. I might have to try this one!
Another smoothie recipe?! Yay!
What does adding the coconut oil do? I have never saw this in a green smoothie before. Can it be omitted?
