Guess what?
This fabulous blended green juice is made in a blender, not a juicer.
It tastes just like a juice, yet it’s actually a smoothie retaining all that fabulous fiber.
With just 2-ingredients this recipe is simple and delicious and packed with all sorts of healthy-for-you goodies.
To make this blended green juice, you simply blend baby spinach with freshly squeezed orange juice.
The taste of the OJ overtakes the taste of spinach so you only taste the spinach very mildly, in a delicious, earthy, oh-my-word-I’m-drinking-spinach-and-it-tastes-good, kind of way.
I use my citrus juicer attachment to my food processor to make fresh orange juice.
If you buy it ready squeezed, that’ll cut the prep time of this recipe down from around 15 minutes to 5!
I really prefer squeezing my own OJ though as it always seems sweeter than what I buy in the store, which is usually quite tart. 
And for best results on this juice, you want deliciously sweet orange juice as your base ingredient.
Drink one of these for breakfast or to rehydrate you post-workout or just have it as a snack. It’s refreshing, hydrating, invigorating and uplifting!

January 22, 2016 at 5:24 pmHi Erra,
I use a Vitamix. We’ve had it for 7 years now and regard it as one of our best purchases ever 🙂 I haven’t ever made my own granola no, but it’s definitely something I want to try!

January 23, 2016 at 2:39 amOh, I’m looking forward to it! 🙂 also I’d like to ask if you’re using flax egg in your vegan chocolate cake recipe as a substitute of egg or what?
