Blended Smoothies without Fruit

For those who are currently not tolerating even the low-sugar fruits, here’s a collection of blended greens that use lemon and herbs for flavor. Stevia, essential oils, and spices can be added for additional flavor. Use these as a spring board and adjust the flavor to your liking. Experimenting with ingredients that need to be used up gives us practice in flavor balancing techniques. It is important to be sure that all five flavors - sweet, salty, bitter, sour, and pungent (also known as spicy or aromatic) - are included in the mix. When the flavors are balanced, your recipe will burst with an exquisite taste sensation when it hits the tongue.

    Personal Note: “Clean out the fridge” drinks and soups are fun and exciting. You never quite know what you will end up with! I usually gather small bits of vegetables, onions, and herbs and throw them into the blender. Then I taste, add seasonings, spices, salt, and more vegetables. Often a masterpiece is created.
