In this Instructable, I will show you how to make a super easy and healthy green smoothie. I have been drinking them nearly every day recently to help me lose some weight. I am trying to shave a few pounds because of all the treats, desserts, and baked goods I like to eat, haha.

Green smoothies and smoothies in general are a great way to get some extra fruits and veggies into your diet.

Step 1: Cut and Blend

Slice up any fruit like the honeydew and the apple. Large chunks are fine.

Pour the water into the blender first. Then add the grapes, apple chunks, and honeydew chunks.

Follow those up with the spinach and kale. Put the lid on your blender and you are ready to go.

Start with a low setting and blend gradually adjust the speed until you are on the highest setting. Once on the highest setting allow it to go for about 30 seconds. If you have a "smoothie" setting on your blender, use that.

NOTE: The better your blender the better the smoothie will turn out. I really like my Vitamix. It makes it super smooth without any grit. If you are going to make smoothies a lot, I recommend a higher-end blender. Plus you can do all kinds of other things with them.

Step 2: Serve!

Once all blended you are ready to go. A quick easy green smoothie for breakfast, or whenever.

NOTE: These are my favorite ingredients to add to a green smoothie, there are so many more you can try. These give it a deep green color. I also will add frozen pineapple or fresh pineapple instead of honeydew, and also carrots on occasion. Orange juice instead of water I will do often as well. But things like pineapple and carrots will affect the color of course.

Pour the smoothie into glasses, you should be able to get two 12 to 14-ounce servings out of this.

Enjoy!
