Cucumber Refresher






















I'm not a big fan of avocado shakes even though they are extremely healthy. While messing around with some recipes my husband and I came up with this recipe in lieu of an avocado shake. Surprisingly sweet and perfect for in the morning.



2 handfuls of Spinach
3/4-1 cup sliced Cucumber (about 5-6 inches of a cucumber)
Half of 1 Avocado
Juice of 1 Lemon
1-2 cups Water
2 handfuls of Ice Cubes
2 1/2-3 packets of Stevia
A scoop of your favorite super greens (optional)

Place all ingredients into a blender (I use a Vita Mix blender) and blend on medium for a minute. Then turn blender to a high setting and blend until all ingredients are completely smooth and blended. Serve immediately.
