Green Mornings

I'm about to embark on my third road trip of the summer, hauling a car full of my stuffs across the country. But this last month I was hanging out with the parents in the burbs of Chicago. And each and every morning I was greeted with a healthy and tasty green smoothie, via my mom's Nutri Bullet Blender.

I tried to recreate my mom's version last year, which didn't yield the results I had hoped. But since I was in charge of making them for the past 10 days, I think I've nailed the recipe, while adding some personal touches.
