Cucumber, Parsley, Pineapple Smoothie
I’ve been on a smoothie kick all summer, it’s my go-to breakfast after a workout and also a great way to clean out my fridge. Rather than juicing, smoothies use the whole fruit and vegetables which retain the nutrients in the skins and have more fiber to keep you full longer. This super healthy smoothie is surprisingly sweet and so yummy, made with absolutely no dairy – delicious!
I’ve been using The Blender Girl Smoothies Cookbook a lot this summer. The author, Tess Masters is a blender master! Her book has 100 smoothie recipes that are healthy, vegan, paleo and gluten-free. I’ve tried so many from her book and loved each and every one I’ve tried so far.
This particular smoothie is called Allergies Be Gone in her book. Tess the author says “Parsley is brilliant for alleviating inflammation, asthma and airborne allergies. This blend’s mineral salts neutralizes acids, purifies blood, cleanses skin, detoxifies tissues and organs, assists with elimination of heavy metals, flushes out kidneys and aids in urinary tract health.”

I’ve made this several times. It’s really good even without added sweetener. Today I added some leftover coconut milk and protein powder to make it more substantial as a meal but it’s amazing as written
Hi Gina. I just wanted to thank you for this green smoothie recipe. I’ve been down all week with Omincron and started to make this for my husband and myself immediately. It’s been refreshing and exactly what we’ve needed during this time of sickness. I will continue to make this even when we are well again.💜
Glad you both enjoyed it and I hope you are well soon!!
I’ve made this several times, so good!!
I can’t digest fresh pineapple but I can canned pineapple…any significant difference?
When I input these ingredients as a drink in the Weight Watcher app, it calculated 8 points. Now I am confused. Which is correct?
This was delicious. We are not the biggest fans of parsley, however, we just cut the amount. Very filling too.
