Good morning!! I woke up thinking about how badly I wanted a green smoothie for breakfast.

After you try this concoction you'll understand why!!!!

Grab a blender + toss in:

• 1 handful kale or collard greens
• 2 handfuls spinach
• 2 stalks celery
• 1/2 cucumber
• 1/2 cup blueberries or strawberries
• 1/2 banana
• 1 T Green Dream powder
• 1 cup almond milk, rice milk, oat milk or water
• pinch of Himalayan pink sea salt

This drink gives me energy for hours, unlike any energy a caffeinated drink could  provide. Another plus about this drink is that it really alkaline's the system, helps you keep weight off + it is incredibly cleansing for the system (lymphatic + digestive).

You can take away the banana for less sugar or add more to make it sweeter. You'll still get the beautiful benefits of all the green vegetables.

If you want it to be more savory and less sweet, you can alter the recipe this way:

• 1 handful kale or collard greens
• 2 handfuls spinach
• 2 stalks celery
• 1/2 cucumber
• 1/2 avocado (if you have a good blender toss the pit in there, it will make it super creamy!!)
• 1 cup water
• a few squeezes of fresh lemon
• a couple parsley sprigs
• pinch of cayenne pepper

I like this variation for a mid day snack or a lunch or dinner replacement with green dream protein powder. If you let it blend longer and get really smooth, it will even warm in the blender and come out tasting like a savory soup!!

Okay now that I'm drooling--time to make my shake!!!

Orange fleshed squash such as acorn and butternut are a large storehouse of beta-carotene. On top of being an antioxidant to help fend off those pesky cell-damaging free radicals, beta-carotene is converted to vitamin A in the body that helps with immune defense and good vision. You could also do this entire recipe with pumpkin... or half and half! the bonus of sneaking Philosophie Green Dream in this recipe helps boost the nutrition and adding protein!

2. Scoop the squash out, allow to cool and puree in your food processor. Set aside.

3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, chia seeds, green dream, baking soda & powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and pumpkin spice and set aside.

4. In a large bowl, whisk together the agave, vanilla, eggs substitute and butter. Add the dry ingredients and whisk until smooth. Then whisk in the butternut squash puree. My batter was a little dry so I added a little almond milk and Organic canned pumpkin.

5. Prepare your muffin pan and add the batter a little over halfway. I made 12 cupcakes, you can make more. Bake at 350º for 18 minutes. Insert a toothpick in the center and check to see if it comes out clean.

This is an alkalizing, detoxifying & nourishing salad that also happens to taste INCREDIBLE. It will be the perfect compliment to your labor day party or BBQ! Leave a comment below and let me know how much you LOVE it!

When taking the first sip of this green juice, you may be shocked that it tastes so refreshing, clean and delicious! It's so light, almost like a green colored lemonade! Give it a go!

This is an incredibly healthy, refreshing way to start your day. Kale is full of calcium and antioxidants and just about everything else—it’s one of the best things you can put into your system. Kale and other green vegetables are super alkalizing for your system, and therefore helps to cleanse the body. When juiced with a bit of lemon and agave, kale turns into a sort-of grassy lemonade.

No worries if you don’t have a juicer, a blender and a sieve do the trick.

• 1 bunch of organic kale, stems removed and leaves washed

• 1 green apple, juiced

• the juice of 2 small lemons

• 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons of agave nectar (optional)

• 1/2 cup cold, filtered water

Combine everything in a blender and blend until completely pureed. It might take a little bit of time and manpower to get it going. Strain the juice through a fine sieve or colander into a bowl, pushing down on the solids with a kitchen spoon being sure to extract all the juice. Taste the juice and add a bit more lemon or agave if you think it needs it. Pour into a glass and drink up!
