7 Day Green Smoothie Challenge ~ Recap

I really enjoyed participating in the 7 Day Green Smoothie Challenge!  Prior to this, I have never once tried a green smoothie, so I had no idea what I was getting myself into!  I stocked up on lots of spinach,  and fruit and then decided to wing it each morning.  There were so many recipes online to follow, TONS of inspiration...but because I just can't get myself to measure ESPECIALLY at 6:00 in the morning...I ended up coming up with my own creations!  The first few tries were just "okay".  I started off making them more dairy based, and since I was determined for them to actually be green I think I put in too much spinach.  As the week went on, I worked out some of the kinks (started using Mott's for Tots Apple Juice) and finally by Day 6 (at a more reasonable hour) I was able to share the NTSST Green Smoothie.
Even though the challenge is technically over, I am going to continue to drink these (probably not every day...or like Ashley at Wannabe Green, I too will turn into a frog).  There are many other recipes I would love to try, I even added kiwi to this weeks shopping list!  Thanks to all of the lovely ladies who hosted this!  It was a lot of fun!
