These 20 Lean and Green Recipes to Feel Like a Goddess provide an entire month’s worth of delicious, healthy, plant-based meals full of cool and nutritious shades of green.
Let Mother Earth inspire you to GO GREEN! After all, is there anything as soothing and cooling as the lush shades of green found in nature? Whether it’s a cool pasture in the spring sun, feathery ferns bending in the breeze, or fragrant moss clinging to shady trees—nature has reserved her best artwork for plants in the color green. And that beautiful jade color is also a calling card for extra nutrition, as vegetables are some of the most powerful sources of nutrients on the planet (see my blog at Get Your Leafy Greens for more information). So, to help you go green this month, try my cool, hip Green CBD Oil Smoothie, along with these green recipes from some of my favorite bloggers. This roundup includes our best, greenest recipes in this gorgeous collection of 20 Lean and Green Recipes to Make You Feel Like a Goddess. Enjoy!
