gm-002I just completed my first ever detox(phew!) and after 14 days of cleansing, and off the detox, i am still hooked on GM’s! This particular GM turned out more like a swampy brown colour (‘normal’ folk scoff at our drinks…but they do not know what they are missing!). I had to submit this with a pic of course, because this was my BEST tasting GM yet! funnily enough, i did not have greens on hand (!!) so the greenish/brown comes from hemp protein powder as well as a substance called E3Live( basically, it is algae..so good for you)

Tasty Swampy yummy Green Monster :
(most measurements are approximate b/c i didn’t really measure :s !)

3/4 cup frozen strawberries ( i had ZERO ice, so this was my ice)
1/2 cup almond milk
1/2 – 3/4 cup water
1/2 cup papaya
1/4 cup dice mango
1 scoop Vega Sport vanilla flav. protein powder
1 tbsp walnut pieces
2-3 TBSP greek yogurt (this made it thick and yumo!)
1 tbsp E3Live

blend everything together, you can also add ground Flaxseed, or a tsp flax oil- but i forgot and i had some walnuts for a bit of MUFA.(monounsaturated fats)
I topped my GM with some bee pollen- top it with anything you like! sliced almonds, cinnamon…whatever!
