Vitamix recipe #2

image

So this morning I went to make my breakfast smoothy

2 handfuls of frozen spinach (I need to buy fresh stuff, this is a little freezer burned)
Half an apple
Half an orange
2 Tbsp of juice concentrate (that frozen tube stuff in the stores freezer section)
A handful and a half of ice
And about 3 cups of water

The Vitamix directions say to let frozen fruit thaw for 5 minutes before using. They really do mean it! My frozen orange glob didn't get blended. If I would have broken it up, I think it would have been fine.

The consistency of this smoothy has be spoiled! I can never go back to other blenders. It's like a silky sorbet texture. Usually the apple and orange would leave lots of pulp in my smoothy. Not with the Vitamix!
