About this ebook

Green Smoothie Recipes gives you exactly what you want. Over 200 fully indexed green smoothies recipes with the amounts of everything that you need. Each recipe for green smoothie is grouped in chapters under the main green ingredient that is used. Each of the chapter groups starts with the simplest recipes using the least ingredients and progresses up to more complicated ones at the end of each chapter. This way you can select a recipe that suits your needs and experience in making healthy green smoothies.

This book doesn’t contain any fluff about the health benefits of drinking a green smoothie or the equipment that you need. It is assumed that you know how to use a blender and already have one that will successfully do the job. It also assumes that you are quite capable of throwing the ingredients into a blender and whizzing them up. There are no personal accounts detailing life changing events caused by drinking green smoothies. If you just need a whole lot of different healthy green smoothie recipes to keep you going and make your life more interesting then this is the book for you!

The best green smoothie will only have fruit and greens in it and won’t have additives such as protein powders. Fresh ingredients are used in all of these raw green smoothie recipes. Included are green smoothie weight loss recipes, green smoothie diet recipes and detox smoothie recipes. Once you get started with all of these green smoothie recipes you will just want to carry on, experiment and create your own.

Ellen Vincent

Ellen Vincent was brought up in Ghana but now lives in the UK. She is interested in all things that are natural. Ellen has noticed that many of the cosmetics and treatments that are available in the West contain lots of artificial ingredients and are often based on oils and substances made from petro-chemicals. After comparing them with the kinds of things that she used in Ghana she has found that the petro-chemical based ones can cause irritations and bad reactions as well as not being as good as natural based products. She now extensively makes her own cosmetics and only uses the best natural ingredients that she can find.Back in the old country coconut oil use is widespread and is used in cooking as well as to make body creams. She uses virgin coconut oil to cook with and uses it as the base for many of her skin and hair creams and oils. Ellen now produces a range of natural cosmetics that she sells in her local area in the UK under the name of 'Natural Revelations'. She hopes that she will be able to introduce these to Ghana at some stage together with all of the books that she has written on natural healthy living.Dealing with the outside of your body is fine but, to make the most of the creams and oils that you apply, you need to make sure that the foods that you eat are also doing their job. She is a big fan of green smoothies and makes sure that she has these every day. She feels invigorated after drinking them. You should look out for Ellen's books on green smoothies which include a volume that just contains ideas for recipes. She has built up her vast collection of green smoothie recipes by experimentation and following good practice.In the UK she came across apple cider vinegar and has found that this too is very useful when it comes to treating your skin and keeping your body healthy. She was so amazed by the many uses that can be found for apple cider vinegar that she wrote a book all about it. This too will soon be available through Smashwords.If you want to find out about how using a range of natural ingredients can be so good for your body and health, then you really should read Ellen's books. These are available in both electronic formats and as paperbacks. She is hoping to produce a book specifically for the care of Black hair and skin and as a result you should watch out for this when it is actually published in the near future.

    Introduction

    This book contains the details of over 200 different green smoothie recipes. The recipes are all listed under the main green ingredient that they contain. The list is fully indexed so that you can find your way to any of the recipes by following the hyperlinks on the contents page. In addition to this, each section or chapter starts with the simplest recipes having the least ingredients and works up to the more complex ones. This means that you can easily find a recipe which suits your taste and experience level.

    The book assumes that you have made green smoothies before, and that what you are looking for is a variety of different recipes to try out. This book doesn’t contain any details of how to make a basic smoothie, the equipment you need, personal experiences with smoothies or claims for health benefits. If you need to get all of this background then you should look at my other book on the 'Green Smoothie' which is published on both Kindle and as a paper back.

    The recipes all have suggested amounts for the ingredients. However, you need to realize that where a number of leaves or fruits are suggested you will have to take into consideration the actual size of each. You should try to make sure that the amounts used fit into the percentages of fruit and greens that you would expect in a green smoothie. A typical green smoothie is made up of 60% fruit and 40% green leaves. You should therefore use the amounts in each recipe as a guide and then adjust them accordingly to get the desired effect.

    Each recipe is designed to contain only fresh ingredients and as a result things like protein powders, wheatgrass powders and the like have been avoided. However, a few of the more complex recipes may have some grains, seeds or nuts to enhance the overall user experience. This doesn’t mean to say that you shouldn’t use any dried ingredients or protein supplements. If you
