Skinny Green Tropical Smoothie

Lately I have been on a smoothie kick. I make 1-2 smoothies a day. I feel as though its better to blend all of these good things together and drink them raw than cooking them and reducing the vitamin content. And Kannon LOVES a smoothie. Today I came across this recipe and tried it. It was one of the best green smoothies I have tried yet! I did make some changes to it though. I used a tablespoon of coconut oil (yes that is weird but it has good fats in it). And water instead of coconut milk and shredded coconut. So, I since I loved it so much, I figured others may enjoy it too! So CHEERS to your health! And thanks Skinny Taste for the great recipe. I love this blog!!
