I was watching Oprah the other day, and her health expert, Dr. Oz, recommended a green drink that he blends himself. Oprah tried it and called it, "a glass of fresh."
Today, I decided to whip up a glass of my own.
I went online and the ingredients were posted, but not the amounts, so I had to wing it. Here's the recipe:
Dr. Oz's Green Drink
celery
spinach
cucumber
apple
ginger
parsley
lemon
He said toss them in a blender and blend (I took the liberty of assuming I was supposed to peel the apple, ginger and cucumber, and include only the juice of the lemon).
Apparently, Dr. Oz has a much better blender than me. I just had a bunch of dry veggies spinning around in the blender. I tried adding water. Then I had wet veggies spinning around.
I pulled them out, put them in a food processor.
Hmmph. Just a bunch of wet chopped up veggies.
I thought I might take a swig anyway - just to see if it was just an ugly, chunky glass of fresh - but my son cried out, "Don't drink that!" with such passion, I found myself dumping it down the sink before I even thought it through.
Ah well.
