Top 10 Green Smoothie Recipes for International Green Smoothie Day

Top 10 Green Smoothies Recipe (Blog Post)

Top 10 Green Smoothie Recipes: International Green Smoothie Day

Today (15th August) is Officially International Green Smoothie Day. So what could be better than sharing my top 10 green smoothie recipes with you.

If you’ve never had a green smoothie before, you’ve been missing out!  There is a reason this incredible drink has become as popular as it has.  Once you start drinking a daily green smoothie, you will have so much energy and feel amazing.  It’s much easier to lose weight and recover from major health problems (as I did) when you ensure you get your daily dose of green smoothies.

These 10 recipes are some of the most popular green smoothie recipes in the world.  Give this miracle drink a try today and reap the benefits for yourself.

I hope you enjoy my favourite [tweetherder]Top 10 Green Smoothie Recipes [/tweetherder]

Are you struggling to lose weight and keep it off?

Are you feeling run down and are struggling with ever increasing health problems?

Green Thickies new 7 Day Detox will help you drop a dress size, improve your skin, your energy will soar and you are going to be so in control and proud of yourself.

You won't go hungry on this diet ... And better yet - it actually requires minimal time in the kitchen.

Get results like this...

Hi Katherine,

I just wanted to tell you I completed the 7 day detox and I feel so great.

I have lost 6lbs, do not feel like I need more my morning coffee, the flushing of my facial skin from rosacea has dramatically reduced and I am so excited to wake up each morning and make a green thickie for breakfast!!

I am a stay at-home, homeschooling momma of 3 littles and at times so busy I would forget to feed myself!

I would go most of the day without eating and then snack on random things.

I gained 60 pounds the last 6 years during pregnancy.

I have lost 30lbs but recently plateaued and have felt so frustrated.

I’ve tried everything from paleo and keto to the point where I didn’t know what to eat or how much and felt like even eating fruit was bad for me which thankfully it’s not!

What a game changer for me. Thank you for sharing a simple but effective program.

I’m so excited to continue another week with this plan! Thankful Stephanie

      Hi Amber

      Happy Green Smoothie Day to you too! Thank you so much for pinning ALL of these recipes. I really appreciate it and I’m sure the other bloggers will really appreciate it too. They are absolutely gorgeous green smoothies and all unique. This morning I had the Key Lime Pie which was absolutely gorgeous. I couldn’t get enough of this one! I also had smooth operator which included nutritional yeast which I’ve never had in a smoothie before but it tasted amazing. It just made the smoothie taste so wholesome and balanced. The Basic Green Smoothie was extremely refreshing, zingy and not overly sweet so good on a hot summers day (like today in the UK, yay!) And I also had the healthy limeade smoothie. This is a non sweet green smoothie so perfect if you’re avoiding fruit. It reminded me of the smoothie I drank all the way through my pregnancy, tangy and fresh. Yum!

      That’s the beauty of a green smoothie, they are fruity, taste fruity and if you can get over the green colour you won’t even notice they aren’t a fruit smoothie. Try adding black berries to your smoothie to make it purple and get the benefit of the greens too.

      Hi Kirsty. Ooo I wonder if blackberries are popping up around here too. I’ll have to have a look around and see if I can find any good places to go and pick them. That smoothie is such a lovely colour isn’t it.

      Thank you for your comment and I look forward to another Fresh Foods Blog Hop.

    Thank you so much for sharing your green smoothies with us over at Gluten Free Fridays. I really do appreciate you linking up. And I really do appreciate you taking the time to post these great smoothies! I’ve been a slacker the past couple of weeks on my juicing and smoothie making, so maybe these new recipes will give me the extra push I need:). Thanks again Katherine

      Hi Meghan, no problems, thank you for hosting such a great blog hop. I always found juicing a lot harder and more expensive but I just make a massive batch of smoothies for the day and I’m sorted then. I hope you find a recipe you like. I add oats to most of my recipes (green thickies) so they fill me up enough to get me through the morning without needing anything else to eat.

      Yes these are some great recipes from some of my favourite blogs too. It’s funny I drank the same green smoothie for 6 months after my baby was born. That’s why I love this blog as it gives me inspiration to vary my own diet. You should try the key lime pie. It’s absolutely gorgeous. It was gone far too quickly. I’m going to have to make a green thickie version of that one I think. Thank you so much for visiting.
