Ultimate Healthy Smoothie

Orange juice concentrate (start with 1/3 cup or so, can always add more)
banana
pineapple
cherries
(I add frozen plums too, but optional)
spinach
kale
beats
carrots
agave nectar or honey to add sweetness
ice cubes, or if you have all your fruit frozen ahead you may not need ice
add water to desired consistency!

This will turn a pretty red color and hide all the green veggies!

Strawberry Banana milkshake

1/3 Cup welches white grape, welches white grape peach or apple juice concentrate
1 banana
1 Cup strawberries
milk to desired consistency

Blend well, this tastes just like an ice cream milk shake! this is ball park measurements, I never measure! You could also put other kinds of berries in with this (raspberries, blueberries, blackberries)

You can also do a peach/banana smoothies exactly the same way by putting in peaches instead of strawberries!
