Secretly Green Smoothie [vegan] [gluten free] by The Flexitarian

You would never guess this deep purple smoothie contains broccoli and watercress.

I also included hemp powder for added protein.

Make it yours! Sweeten it with agave syrup, maple syrup or honey if needed. Add ginger and mint to taste.

This recipe makes 1 large smoothie or 2 smaller ones.
