Banana Avocado Wheatgrass Smoothie
The summer is approaching! That means that a nice and refreshing smoothie is more than welcome :) Filled with greenies, this smoothie is super healthy. And guess what? I have found a way to use the infamous wheatgrass and still keep the smoothie very tasty! So let's get to it and see what you need to get an instant health boost within 5 minutes.
You might be wondering why I decided to use the wheatgrass juice even if I don't like the taste of wheatgrass itself. I think we all fear this little green monster a little bit because it's known for its strong taste, but did you also know it is chock-full of proteins, vitamin C, iron and anti-oxidants?

For me, this is more than enough reason to incorporate this little greenie into a daily smoothie!
