* 12 ice cubes

4. Place the spinach leaves into the blender.
5. Sprinkle the parsley flakes in.

Story

This is one way to get the kids to eat their vegetables! You can add other ingredients to this basic veggie smoothie if you like. Additional spices or herbs will create different flavors for different occasions. Perhaps some cilantro added or even a dash of chili powder would make a smoothie that would be great when having enchiladas or tacos for dinner.

You can also serve this smoothie over ice in tall glasses if you want even a more refreshing cooler-style drink. Insert celery stalks, sliced crispy pickles, or any other garnish for a truly inspired beverage.
