Green Breakfast Smoothie for Beginners like me! -dairy free

[Jamberie]

I used to do that Jam, it works a treat. I also included the banana
Sorry to hear about the cholesterol but glad you seem positive

I was going to add the banana...but didn't have enough....will buy some more tomorrow

I'm not too worried about the cholesterol, it's not high enough to warrant medication (5.9) but a bit high for my age... I'm taking it as a challenge

I'm also a beginner and I liked this recipe so much, I like smoothies because they are quite simple to make) Here's my favourie green smoothie recipe:
1 cup water
1 cup frozen mixed berries
1 cup kale
1/2 cup aloe vera juice - I don't use bottled juice but make natural one from the leaves, here's one of aloe vera juice recipe (last but one paragraph)
1/2 banana

Tear kale leaves off of stems and tear into small shapes. Put everything into a blender and blend until smooth.

Aloe vera juice sounds like a good addition... I'll have to try it
