    Magic, I don't "get" the appeal of smoothies. Why are they better than eating the the raw ingredients separately?

    Today:

    Br: V8, All-Bran Bran Buds, banana, skim milk
    Lu: cherries, spinach salad with hummus and clementine and hardboiled egg, 2 ak mak crackers
    Sn: pear/skim mozzarella stick, clementine/yogurt
    Di: mixed green salad with Bolthouse dressing, chicken gruyere, broccoli and cauliflower, Dave's killer slice, pistachios

    ************************************************

    I think you just have to experience it and find out for yourself. However, the ingredients and most importantly, the greens, are broken down to their cellular level and are actually better received by your body to ... well, to nourish you and make you feel amazing. Green Smoothies, in my experience, also help to eliminate cravings. HUGE PLUS!

    Your question is the most common I hear from people who would rather eat their calories. I eat plenty of calories...just check out my menu.

    I am on day 9 and right now, my body is craving a green smoothie to get me started. My smoothie is more about getting the greens in...not a meal smoothie. I think Sabine is more familiar with meal green smoothies. Mine have NO fat and NO real protein. I do think I might venture into adding the fats and protein...I need to do more research on that.

    I still love to eat my eggs and avocado. Which is on the menu today with a slice of Dave's Killer Bread toast. I get to splurge on the weekends...because I have time to eat.
