I adapted this recipe to my green smoothie eating by adding a cup of protein and a cup of spinach. It's TOTALLY wonderful and healthy. I buy all my fruits in frozen bags and it's much cheaper.

Maybe you could enjoy it if you consider it as a substitution of other non-nutritional things that could be eliminated from your diet because it really does sound yummy. I would probably strain it with cheesecloth, though since seeded fruits are not my friend.
6/9/2010 05:40:44 PM Report AbuseI can't afford this one. the one cup of raspberries would start at $4, strawberries $4, blue berries; $3. Not for the poor person.
