Guest guest Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Sounds good - I've gotten some good ideas from Dr. Oz, but can't think of any to share at the moment. It appears this recipe makes much more than a cup, so one must use a little self control and not drink the whole thing, eh?~!

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 It's the fat in this recipe that helps keep you feeling full longer. I bet this is DELICIOUS!!! I always eat half of an avocado with my daily "Mean Green" juice… (fat also helps us absorb more of the minerals/nutrients from veggies).Yum! Thanks for sharing!
