sweetener of your choice ( I used dark agave )

Throw everything in your vitamix and enjoy! ( I am going to try to add a little spinach in mine the next time I make it )..

Strawberry and company are so sweet and charming aren't they? I just got a vintage juice size Strawberry glass. I have a tiny collection of things. I do not care for the new Strawberry girl.

right.. I almost named this the "spirulina hider smoothie" .. I am always trying to hide my spirulina in interesting ways because I don't like the taste. ( and yes! the baby plants are getting ready to be planted soon!!!)

Sounds good. And if it can hold a whole teaspoon of Spirulina that's even better! :) Thank you. Though I won't be able to try it for a while my supplies are gone :(. But yay for the future :D!
