Green Smoothies

Spinach
milk
strawberries
oranges
blueberries
ice

I usually add spinach to the milk and blend well before adding the other ingredients.

Make this with whatever fruit you like.  I never measure anything with this recipe.  Sometimes I do add a little bit of sugar or yogurt for taste.
