I can picture my mom rolling those eyes now. Seemed easy enough, few ingredients and a simple game of ‘will it blend’.<\/p>\n
For my “Virgin Green Monster” I used:
\n2 handfuls of spinach
\n1 banana
\n1\/4 cup berries
\nSprinkle of cinnamon
\nIce & Water<\/p>\n
Verdict, it was my first so it\u2019s only up from here, right? Clearly my green monster was not feeling well as it has a darker shade of purple, complements of Trader Joes\u2019s blend o\u2019 berries. Our very own Nutritioneer had the \u201care you HIGH, Claire\u201d look on his face for sure. But in the end, I got a \u201cnot bad\u2026too much cinnamon.\u201d Blerg.<\/p>\n
Applause and kudos to Oh She Glows because oh she pretty much rocks and has started an entire Green Monster Movement. Thus she was the inspiration for me even knowing what these monsters were about.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
