Default my *start today* shake

a cup or so of homemade unsweetened apple sauce (it did cook with cinnamon sticks) it was cold from fridge

diced celery maybe a handful

a handful of bagged spinach (i pull the stems off)

a scoop of whey isolate

grated a litted ginger root

three ice cubes

tossed in some flax seed


No mess and it was delicious.



(homemade applesauce has to be the easiest thing to do) select what kind of apples you want, I usually use a mixture...who cares.....I core them and cook them with the skin on (the skins loosen and you scoop the apple out when done) I put them inside a crock pot/slow cooker on low and let them cook with a few cinnamon sticks, don't lift the lid! within 4 hrs, apples are super soft and done. I use my immersion blender after i spoon the apples out of the skins. Sprinkle with cinnamon if you like (or don't have cinnamon sticks)
simple, good for you and boy does you home smell great while this is cooking.

Immersion bleender just chopps the apple chunks up for a smoother texture, if you plan to use in smoothy, no need. I consider myself a juicing and smoothy queen.
