Sunday's Recipe Share -- Green Smoothies

As promised, here are some of my favorite green smoothie recipes--mine are all grain and dairy free, I usually add about 1 tsp of flax seed to each of my smoothies as well.  You can easily add some Greek yogurt if you tolerate it.  Please read my blog from Friday for some important info regarding green smoothies.
