Refreshing, nourishing, and nutrient-dense. All good things! And all happening in this smoothie from Christy Morgan, The Blissful and Fit Chef.
Christy is a macrobiotic vegan chef, a cookbook author (Blissful Bites), and the Editor-in-Chief of a fantastic magazine called Definition Magazine, which delves into fitness for vegan ladies.
Have you tried fresh basil in a smoothie before? What did you think? I love it! Fresh mint is also excellent.
