Green Machine Fiber Smoothie

Anyone else feel like they need a mini detox after the holiday festivities? I know I do! Instead of cutting your calories to make up for it, try this green machine smoothie instead! Not only does it pack a big punch of protein (39 grams!), but it’s loaded with fiber and micronutrients! The fiber from the chia seeds and wheat bran, paired with the vitamins and minerals in the spinach and kale will help cleanse your body, helping you feel re-energized and less bloated from all those festive goodies! Don’t be fooled though- you can enjoy this tangy drink any time of year! Cheers! ;)Photography By April Hamilton
