Ah, green foods, smoothies, drinks..
The essence of health.
The purest form of ‘this will either be really good or freakin disgusting’.
In a recent effort to lower my anxiety & up my healthy game, I’ve been making a veggie drink for my breakfast a few times a week.
I also cut out (caffeinated) coffee.
It is working- the caffeine withdrawals reallllly weren’t that bad with the green drinks as a ‘replacement’. My anxiety isn’t as wild without the daily coffee. & I lived on coffee, it’s the reason (supposedly) I survived most days. The few days of initial suckiness have been well worth it.
BUT some of the smoothies/juices I made have come out DISgusting …. like I could not bear to even smell them π I tried to experiment & yiikes.
So I figured I’d share some of the combos that worked out & tasted swell!
I’ll use these recipes as a way to ease myself back into writing blog posts for yall π since I kind of let this little baby of mine fall to the wayside. WOOPS!
