Broccoli in your Smoothie!

May 1, 2020 by Linda Watson Leave a Comment

Broccoli in your Smoothie!

What do you do with the middle part of a broccoli stalk? It’s devoid of attractive florets, too complicated to peel, and a bit too tough to chew.

This week, I found the perfect answer: put it in your smoothie! Just chop it up into pieces that are up to two inches across, so your blender doesn’t have to work up a sweat. Toss in any broccoli leaves you have too.

Use broccoli in place of greens my Strong-Bones Smoothie recipe. Doing so makes the smoothie a Something for Nothing recipe.

Check out these recipes for other ways to use broccoli, a tasty nutritional powerhouse:

  • Creamy Orange Broccoli Soup with Ginger
  • Orange Broccoli Bowl with Cashews and Ginger
  • Stir-Fry Template
