Blackberry Green Smoothie
 
 
Use what vegetables and fruit is in season in your area and change it around depending on what is available. You can even start by simply adding a very small amount of greens to your smoothie until you get used to the idea, then slowly increase over time. Each 1 cup serving of blackberries gives you 6 grams of usable carb and 8 grams fiber, the best carb to fiber ratio of any other berry.
