Simple Spring Green Smoothie
By Isabel Smith, MS, RD, CDN
This smoothie is simple, packed with anti-cancer nutrients like quercetin and isothiocyanates, and tasty too. I added hemp seeds to make it more balanced because hemp is a complete source of plant-based protein, and will help to promote satiety. I made this smoothie for breakfast, and it really energized me for the day.
