A friend of mine lives in LA and told me about green monsters.  I was skeptical at first, but decided it was worth trying.

The first time I made a green monster, it came out brown (see recipe here: http://www.luckyzucca.com/2011/04/they-call-him-green-monster.html).  It was still absolutely delicious, but I wanted to make a real green one! So along came attempt #2.  And it worked!  It came out green, creamy, and delicious! Here is my recipe:

2tablespoons flax seed
2 tablespoons applesauce (unsweetened)
1/4 cup plain greek yogurt
1/4 cup vanilla soy milk
1/2 banana
1 kiwi
8oz pineapple
1 giant handful of fresh baby spinich

I’ve been making monsters almost every morning since!
