Do you want clear skin that glows? Try this week’s green smoothie recipe from simplegreensmoothies.com.  Not only is this recipe easy to make and delicious, it has a great ingredient for your skin: avocado. Yes, avocado is the key ingredient for making Guacamole but it is also great for your skin. Avocados are rich in healthy fats and Vitamin E, which helps the skin retain its natural protective barrier and can help hydrate skin.

Serves 2

Ingredients 

2 cups of fresh spinach

2 cups of coconut water

2 cups pineapple

1 avocado

Directions

Blend all the ingredients together and enjoy!

Tip: Blend the spinach and milk first before adding in the fruit.

**If you have extra avocado,  add honey to the avocado and apply it your face as a mask.  Leave on for about 5-10 minutes, rinse with warm water and pat your face dry.
