Hi! This smoothie was the start to my diet to fight cancer. I was only stage one of a non aggressive cancer, thankfully! Once diagnosed, I began paying more attention to what I was eating and how I managed my diet and overall health. These smoothies helped me recover from my surgery and have a new beginning. Since I signed up with you and your recipes, I have had some amazing life changing results. Thank you for all your inspiration!!
3 things I love about this: 1) The timer. No guess-work and very simple! 2) You can place everything inside all at once. Not piecemeal. 3) And finally, the durability. It just looks and sounds solid. Thank you for the opportunity.
I watched the video about 10 times. I mastered it and make it here in East Harlem NYC. I also make beet juice and other healthy drinks. I salute your channel and keep motivating us. Peace and Love...
I have been with you since you first began the green smoothie journey. I love your recipes and try them as often as I can. I am so proud of how far you have come and look forward to more recipes!!! You rock!
You are an original Rawstar----woohoo!!! I would love to know how many of us there are in the community. Would be cool to have a reunion to celebrate it all. Thanks for being a part of SGS Tracey.
This is very small, but I love how you added little tips to help with the smoothie making: like the suggestions for people who don't like bananas (either substituting the banana for avocado or even just cutting down on the banana) and what it does for the recipe (makes it creamier) and also how you can add all ingredients if you have a high powered blender. Those small tips helped!
I hope this works for my cheap cheap blender lol I will be trying her tip of just blending the spinach and water first. Just hoping to find something that would be good to substitute for mango first.
I’ve been using your recipes and your e-books and smoothie app for years! They are my go to recipes! I love that you are so genuine and humble in your videos. And real! I’m so tired of seeing fake makeup, drawn on eyebrows and fake lashes! You embrace natural beauty and it shows in your skin that plant based is good for the body and good for the soul! What I like about this video is it is simple, straight to the point and enticing in visuals and how you describe the smoothie and how you’ll be drinking it poolside. Your kitchen is adorable too!
I love your energy and how you relate to your audience. You give us real feelings that many of us parents such as myself go through. Thank you for taking this on.
Hey Jen I'm one of the million people who made your Beginner's Luck Smoothie. Actually it was my very first green smoothie and is still my go-to. What I loved about the Vitamix Ascent Series Blender is that it's a one and done deal - you put everything in and in just a few quick seconds - ta-da! - it's done. Creamy perfection.
Awe thanks Michelle!!! I am so happy that you fell in love with green smoothies from our "Beginner's Luck" smoothie. The Vitamix really is so amazing and making smoothies is a breeze with it :-)
This smoothie is what started my love for making smoothies! I like how you explained about blending the spinach first with a less powerful blender. For a long time I didn't know this and had pieces of spinach or kale in my smoothie. Once i doscovered this trick, it made a huge difference. Looking forward to more videos!
Hey Shauna, thanks for your comment!! :-) I think it's safe to say this smoothie is the hit for everyone. I am so glad that you found it helpful blending the spinach and water first! You can always make it work no matter what blender you have!
Thank you so much! Yes, this Beginner's Luck is delicious. This is particularly great for someone who is just starting to drink green smoothies because it has a pleasant taste, not too sweet and just the right combination and the right choices of veggies and fruit, so a "beginner" is more likely to enjoy green smoothies., because it's so tasty. I sometimes replace mango for pineapple.
I loved your video! Beginner’s Luck is my favorite SGS recipe, and I return to it time after time. I think the best part of the video is showing people how easy it is to make a daily green smoothie that will nourish you. If it’s not easy, people won’t do it!
Jen, you’re so cute! I don’t think you were awkward with your hands at all, I thought you were a natural on camera. Color me impressed! Thank you for introducing me to your 7 day smoothie challenge. You’ve changed my life by introducing me to healthy smoothies that don’t gross me out! Beginner’s is one of my favorites, my go-to.
Thanks Kimberlee!! We appreciate the encouragement so much. :-) SO happy that we can make a small impact on your day with these delicious smoothies! Happy blending!!!
I'm so are glad you're posting these videos! Thanks, Jen. You have such a wonderful way of encouraging and teaching us - you're so easy to watch. BTW: You are one of the women I have on my Encouragement Board - women who encourage me to live a healthy, faith-filled life. You are making a difference!
I found y'all about 3 years ago and have been smoothie-ing since! The Beginner's luck is one of my faves! I also throw a little chia seeds into mine to keep me full until lunchtime! I'm a teacher and I credit the healthfulness of this daily smoothie for keeping away the germs I fight during my school day with kids! No flu, no strep, no illness all last year! The benefits of adding this to my daily regimen are amazing! Skin glowing, tummy happy!! Thank you for opening up the green smoothie world to me!
Loved it! Your recipes are the best! My favorite part are the explanation of how to substitute ingredients (banana/avocado), and the recommendation of blending your greens first. Sometimes, my lack of imagination gets the best out of me, but thanks God you’re a good reference to go to and get back on track! Thank you for sharing✨
I like how the Vitamix blends the greens and fruits, so smoothly. I especially like my green smoothies cold. So I usually freeze my fruit, so that I have a thick, creamy smoothie. Great for the summer time and keeping cool.
I tried this as soon as I saw the video and my family and I LOVE it!!! Its quick and so healthy. It's a green smoothie party for your tummy!!! The video was so inviting with a clean look. The fresh fruits on the counter make it look so inviting. So lovely! I have a small personal blender, so having a large blender for my family would be such a blessing and make blending so much easier. Thank you again Jen! ❤
Hi Jen! I have been drinking them on and off for years, but just recently I started making more at home. I just love that they are a wonderful way to give ourselves and our family something healthy. My husband has been recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and smoothies have been good for him. He doesn't need to lose weight. He actually needs to gain some weight. When I feed him healthy foods and make him smoothies it is a good thing. Thanks again for encouraging us to drink healthy! ❤
I gotta say that my favorite part of this recipe is the mangos!!! They are my favorite fruit and I always have some frozen in the freezer. This recipe is super simple and I can't wait to try it out. Thanks for sharing!
Loved this video because it's so easy to follow the instructions with not to many ingredients. I'm a smoothie beginner will definitely try this recipe.
Great video! It helped me understand the correct quantities of the different fruits and veg. I just hope I haven't woken up my neighbours with my blender. ^^
SO happy you enjoyed this video!! We love explaining every step of the smoothie making process :-) Maybe your neighbors will get on board after hearing you blending so much =P
@@jgilly3362 I'm never full having smoothie. Maybe because of portion size. I am not a big fan of that kind of breakfast so my size is max 250 ml which is a little more then a cup.
I like that the ingredients are simple and easy to find plus there are exact measurements so you can be sure of the taste. Thanks for your passion in helping other achieve a healthy lifestyle.
I'm so glad to see this video! Green smoothies have changed my health for the better! I used to be a picky eater (meat and potatoes mainly) - now, I'm a rawkstar! I would LOVE to have a Vitamix blender ! It looks like it really save a lot of time and is a lot easier to clean.
Great video - you're a natural! I love that you include the ingredients on the video and in the write up - and that you gave a helpful hint about blending the spinach and the water first if you don't have a powerful blender. Keep the videos coming!
Love your video! I have done several green smoothie challenges with you! My first was a 30 day challenge but I couldn't wait and started early and stayed late, about 100 days! I was almost fully gray and a bunch of my brown hair grew back, like the fountain of youth! My inner strength improved and started selling solar with my new cofidence! I felt like I could do anything, even though I was obese! I already bought your book and will sign up for your 7 day challenge!. I tell people about your website all the time and would love to win the vita-mix blender! I have gone through 2 food processors and 2 blenders but could never afford the best! You have helped me live healthier and longer! Thank you and, again, love your video!
Simple Green Smoothies Thanj you so much! I just became unemployed but I am goibg to purchase the $35 meal planning opportunity. I had a tax id which I had not been using and am starting my own Urban Gardening company. I also have been trying to promote Green Spaces as I have promoted Simple Green Smoithies since you started. Now I see you are on Green Spaces website. I would like ti promote your Simple Green Smoothies, as well as doing a green smoithie every day, as well as promote Green Spaces and Aquaponics. I am going to be doing a green smoothie every day to give me the spirit to fight the good fight and not give up on myself. I did not believe in nyself until I did the irigibal green smoithy challenge. Not surprising that I was diing your 7 day challenge when I was let go. I was wounded for a couple days now I am full of fight and I know it was because I was doing green smoithies. I thank you for heloibg me to be successful in my life and woukd like to represent you in my company! I am goibg to promote green smoothies, growing your own organic vegetables, being as self-sufficient and sustainable as possible. Thanks for saving my life and being there fir others!
I love green smoothies & looking to try even more recipes! I like that the recipe is very easy whole ingredients!This vitamix blends so smooth & would be helpful to me in making my green smoothies in batches to go with my meal prep!
Great job! First got into green smoothies when my Mom was battling cancer. Now I am really trying to incorporate more into my own diet. Thanks for providing such great support
I love how you make everything seem easy and simple. It's great to see someone showing that it's super easy to make smoothies that are delicious, healthy, and filling. That amazing blender helps too! Keep making videos like this
I love these simple green smoothies!! I have been making these every morning for my husband, three boys, and grandmother for about 5 years now!! I think it is time to get your recipe book I have been doing the same smoothies for a while. I love that you are starting to do videos, it is always more fun to watch then just read. Your video turned out good, I do think that you will get more comfortable as you do more. I would be very interested in watching a video that I haven't been confident enough to try yet, maybe the warm Butternut Pear or WARM HAZELNUT HOT CHOCOLATE GREEN SMOOTHIE. Can't wait to see more of the videos!!!
I am going to try this smoothie! It looks so yummy!!!! What I liked about the video is how you showed everything you are putting in the smoothie and how to do it if you don’t have a vitamix blender! Thank you!
I have been drinking your smoothies since 2013 and this recipe is still my go to recipe! When I get others to drink green smoothies this is the recipe I share always. I want to come work for you! So awesome!
The key to the green (which I'm obsessed with) is using light fruits like pineapple, mango, peaches and grapes. Once you add berries you lose that gorgeous green color. Yet berries taste so good and have so many great benefits as well- so it just depends on the day. :)
Hi Jen, I am so glad you continue to share your healthy smoothies to the world. SGS introduced me to green smoothies. I have been with SGS from the beginning. I have enjoyed every healthy recipe that you have shared. I also have your book. Continued BLESSINGS for SGS!!!!
This video made my mouth water! I love your smoothies. My husband and son are picky eaters, but your smoothies help me get them some nutrition. My son, now 10, has been helping make them since your book first came out. This one and the fruit cocktail are two of his faves! Thank you for all that you are doing with this healthful journey! You have helped my little family and we love you and your family for it!
I discovered you guys back in 2016 and have introduced lots of people to your recipes for smoothies using water and frozen fruit instead of ice and milk/yogurt. I even did a 30 day challenge and my skin was glowing! Thanks guys!
The video was clear and well edited. The voice and speed was fine. I liked your tips on measuring, mixing and substitutions. Great job on introducing the Vitamix, your book and your channel. I love your recipes and would love to have a Vitamix blender to enjoy them even more!
I have been subscribing to your website for years and this video just brought me back to the first time I made this smoothie and how tasty and simple it was. :) Thanks Jen.
I love this video! I don't find you awkward at all! In fact I feel like a friend is talking to me. I love all you do. I have your cookbook and it has changed my smoothie game. This blender would help take it to the next level!
Hey Sarah!!! You are our lucky Vitamix winner!!! Wahooo!!!! Could you send me an email to hello@simplegreensmoothies.com with your full name, address, and phone number so we can get your blender to you? SO excited for you!! :-)
The video is awesome! Not having to "pre-blend" my greens and water would be a dream come true! I am thankful for my "Old Faithful", but your blender gets it all smooth and perfect at the same time--it's like the Chuck Norris of blenders!! Keep the videos coming!
I Love the Simple Green Smoothie girl! I have taken the 7 day challenge and found my go to daily smoothie recipes for years to come. The smoothie recipe book is awesome and now I will never tire of the same old thing every day. I look forward to eventually trying them all. Thanks!!
I really love the tip on measuring the spinach by handfuls & LOVE the beautiful bright green color of this finished smoothie:). Thank you for this helpful instruction...GREAT JOB!!!
I love your green smoothie recipes. Jadah Sellner gifted me the Simple Green Smoothies book - for being the first one to answer one of her questions. Since then I’ve been making your recipes and they’re amazing! No more boring or ridiculously bad tasting smoothies for me, I love that you incorporate tropical fruits that makes a whole difference in taste and texture. This is so great especially for kids - they love sweet stuffs and if they can get it from their smoothies - then everyone wins. My whole family enjoy Simple Green Smoothies!
Beginners Luck is one of my all time favorite green smoothies. I make sure my water is icy cold when I make mine. Yummers! Thanks Jen. You are a true rawkstar!
Thank you Jen and Simple Green Smoothie for a great recipe! This is one of my favorite green smoothies! I have my 85 year young mother staying for the summer and we have this green smoothie, or one like it every day! Love it... Keep up the good work, great video!
Jen, you had great tips and your voice and voice speed were perfect. The camera work and editing in the video are fantastic! I would love to have this blender and skip the step of blending the spinach and liquid before adding the fruit!
I have been following simple great recipes for over 2 years .after few months of following and implementing I have seen lot of changes in my body such as glowing skin, energy improvement and full of nutrients, din’t not gained weight much (good for me) and mind you no need to sacrifice on the tastes! These are yum!!!😋😋
Wow looks delicious! I love the simplicity of all your recipes , I subscribed to your website years ago and still make your smoothies to this day. I love that I can get my daily dose of green veg in and it still taste delicious. Beginners luck is my go to and I always get asked what's in it , when I decide to share lol .
I LOVE this adding a RUclips channel! This is also my favorite green smoothie (along with many others). You make making green smoothies easy and un-intimidating as possible that I can do it! Thank you!
I think you are incredible for making such an engaging video! Like many others, I liked the substitution suggestion. My favorite part of this video, though, was the double-time segment while the smoothie was blending. That was fun, and added an element to the video that made me want to keep watching. Little things like that are so engaging!
Amanda, Thanks for your comment about the double-time segment. That is great feedback. I'm glad that you found the video engaging. You can check out our Rawkstar Substitution Guide if your interesting in more substitution options. simplegreensmoothies.com/tips/substitution-guide
This video is super awesome and professional! I'm in awe at how cool this whole company is. I started with these smoothies towards the beginning of the company and have followed along the way. The ingredient combinations are incredible and I still to this day have between 5-7 green smoothies a week with some of the original recipes! I love this video and the great tips, and think it will be super helpful for people just starting out with smoothies. :)
Thanks for the tips for different blenders and substitutes for banana... This smoothie looks delicious, I can't wait to try it!! You seem so comfortable in front of the camera, looking forward to more videos!
I've learned how to give my body the proper fuel it needs to give me a healthy life by using your Simple Green Smoothie recipes, with the bonus being a 50 pound weight loss!! I have my favorites, but all the recipes are delicious. Thank you so much for sharing your story and your discovery for health!
I just made one of your Green Smoothies this morning! I have your 50 green smoothie recipe book and LOVE IT! Very excited to see you are now on youtube, can't wait to see what you'll post next :)
I am so excited to have found your website. I just did the 7 day challenge and really liked it . I am really surprised at how easy and tasty the recipes were. I would love to have a Vitamix because everyone raves about them so much. I started a plant based diet in January and couldn't be happier. Having a good blender seems to be essential for this lifestyle.
I absolutely love this recipe and can not wait to try it. Thanks for explaining that the greens and water need to be pre-blended if we have a smaller blender! This looks yummy!
I discover u 2 years ago I've been drinking your green drink smoothies for that long I can't believe it's been this long but let me tell you you did amazing on this video you look so relaxed and i can't wait to the next one!
First off, LOVE your shirt. Born and raised AZ girl, now living in Washington state and still love the beautiful desert 😃 I made this recipe yesterday but with fresh kale from our garden in place of the spinach. Delicious! Kale yeah!
Thanks for sharing your green smoothie recipe. I like how you explained other substitutions, such as the avocado instead of bananas. I can't wait to try it myself! 😊👌
Great video! Thank you for sharing this smoothie with the world. My four year old and I LOVE this recipe. It's sweet and energizing a great way to start you day!
I have not been sick once this year despite all the sickness around me. I credit my daily green smoothie & SGS! Love that this blender only takes 50 seconds! My blender is on it’s way out so it takes me 2 rounds of 2 mins to get a drinkable texture. Keep up with the videos! 🤗
I have been making your smoothies ever since I signed up for your 30 day challenge a few years ago. I thought the video was very entertaining and getting tips about substitutions is helpful. Measuring greens is a little difficult so it’s nice to have a visual on the amount.
The smoothie you made in the video was the first one I tried about 2 years ago and it is still my favorite. I think your video was awesome and I look forward to more!! Thank you!
I want more of these videos! You are so warm and delightful on screen! Love this smoothie recipe! I happen to have the ingredients and will make it for a tropical breakfast vacation today! Great tip to blend the greens and water first.
Jen, I loved the video! I especially like that you have a bowl of fruit on the counter from which you effortlessly grab a substitute for bananas and that you used your glass to measure the water. Such great little time saving tips! I have had "Beginner's Luck" many times and, of course, I love it!
We have beginner's luck at least twice a week in our house. It's also the one I make when I introduce new people to the wonderful benefits of having a green smoothie every day. I would love to see more videos. Simple plant based dinners or lunches to take to work would be great! Thanks for showing us how easy and yummy it is to add healthy foods to our daily lives.
Love the beginner's luck smoothie! It's by far my favourite. The Vitamix blender with the timer feature looks amazing. The video was great, keep them coming!
This is one of my go to smoothies in your book. I always love the last of it and makes me feel like I'm on the beach. Love the tip how to measure the spinach. I'm never too sure if I'm adding enough greens.
Loved your video and we downloaded the free challenge two weeks ago! We actually just started the week over because we loved them so much! Thanks for the tip on measuring greens, super helpful!
You are very natural in front of the camera! You are able to get across the basics of making this smoothie in a short period of time. Timing is so important in doing something like this. You offered many easy and quick tips, especially for those just starting making delicious smoothies! I would have added that freezing bananas also helps in thickening the smoothie and making it extra cold which I really like! Great job Jen!
This was the first smoothie I made when I found your site, also the jumping point for the many other smoothies I've made since. Keep up the great work!
I’ve been making this smoothie for quite a while now and I’ve loved it. Today I tried it with a tablespoon of almond butter mixed in and let me tell you it’s even better now!!!
Great Job!! You are so "Real" your tips and recipes make it easier and easier to get this new lifestyle going... Thanks for the time you take to teach!

Simple Green Smoothies Thank you. This is a great video and it's good to know there is a substitute for bananas which I have a sensitivity to.
I enjoyed watching you make the green smoothie, love your book and have tried many recipes. Thanks for all your hard work.
Can't wait to try this recipe! It looks amazingly delicious! I want to win the Vitamix soooooo bad!!
This is a great smoothie everyone will enjoy! I love it! Thank you Jen! :-)

this is my favorite green smoothie I add 1 tsp of spirulina and chia powder. I lost 20 pounds doing this for breakfast! :)
That is amazing Jolene! 20lbs!?!?! You are a rawkstar!!!
Did you workout?
Wow good job!
20 pounds in how long?
How long did it take to lose those 20 pounds

Thanks, for the encouragement. How long have you been drinking green smoothies?
Hi Jen!
I have been drinking them on and off for years, but just recently I started making more at home. I just love that they are a wonderful way to give ourselves and our family something healthy.
My husband has been recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and smoothies have been good for him. He doesn't need to lose weight. He actually needs to gain some weight. When I feed him healthy foods and make him smoothies it is a good thing.
Thanks again for encouraging us to drink healthy! ❤
That makes m heart happy! So happy to hear how SGS is helping your family be more healthy ❤
I gotta say that my favorite part of this recipe is the mangos!!! They are my favorite fruit and I always have some frozen in the freezer. This recipe is super simple and I can't wait to try it out. Thanks for sharing!
Oh the mangos! Love them too!!!! Happy blending!
Loved this video because it's so easy to follow the instructions with not to many ingredients. I'm a smoothie beginner will definitely try this recipe.
Glad you enjoyed it! Let us know how you liked the smoothie.
Great video! It helped me understand the correct quantities of the different fruits and veg. I just hope I haven't woken up my neighbours with my blender. ^^
SO happy you enjoyed this video!! We love explaining every step of the smoothie making process :-) Maybe your neighbors will get on board after hearing you blending so much =P
I love how simple the recipe was and the fact that it was water based! Thank you for sharing and encouraging us to live healthier lives!
You are welcome Dajah!! Eating healthy really is this simple and we want to share that with the world.
You're doing a great job! Thanks!
Beginner's luck is my favorite. I love this recipe, super easy and a quick breakfast for my morning rush.
I love smoothies in the morning they are such a great way to start the day.
How can it be enough for breakfast?
@@kucibaba believe me healthy smoothies pack enough for breakfast it's all nutrition aswel and in some cases more filling than a fat takeaway
@@jgilly3362 I'm never full having smoothie. Maybe because of portion size. I am not a big fan of that kind of breakfast so my size is max 250 ml which is a little more then a cup.

I was almost fully gray and a bunch of my brown hair grew back, like the fountain of youth! My inner strength improved and started selling solar with my new cofidence! I felt like I could do anything, even though I was obese! I already bought your book and will sign up for your 7 day challenge!. I tell people about your website all the time and would love to win the vita-mix blender! I have gone through 2 food processors and 2 blenders but could never afford the best! You have helped me live healthier and longer! Thank you and, again, love your video!
That is so amazing Chrstine!! This is why we do what we do. Congratulations on taking control of you health we are so excited for you :-)

Sorry for spelling errors, would not let me correct, phone smaller than my fingers!
Great video! I look forward to more from you. I enjoy a green smoothie every morning and always like trying new recipes.
Thank you for the feedback! How long have you been with Simple Green Smoothies?
I love green smoothies & looking to try even more recipes! I like that the recipe is very easy whole ingredients!This vitamix blends so smooth & would be helpful to me in making my green smoothies in batches to go with my meal prep!
The Vitamix does blend super smoothie and quick. Thanks for watching and sharing.
Simple Green Smoothies You're welcome Thank you!😊
@@SimpleGreenSmoothies thanks for the upload would definitely wants more recipe plssss
Great job! First got into green smoothies when my Mom was battling cancer. Now I am really trying to incorporate more into my own diet. Thanks for providing such great support
I love how you make everything seem easy and simple. It's great to see someone showing that it's super easy to make smoothies that are delicious, healthy, and filling. That amazing blender helps too! Keep making videos like this
It is easy. The machine is doing all the work!
I love these simple green smoothies!! I have been making these every morning for my husband, three boys, and grandmother for about 5 years now!! I think it is time to get your recipe book I have been doing the same smoothies for a while. I love that you are starting to do videos, it is always more fun to watch then just read. Your video turned out good, I do think that you will get more comfortable as you do more. I would be very interested in watching a video that I haven't been confident enough to try yet, maybe the warm Butternut Pear or WARM HAZELNUT HOT CHOCOLATE GREEN SMOOTHIE. Can't wait to see more of the videos!!!
This recipe tastes delicious! Makes it so easy to make a healthful, smoothie drink right in your own kitchen!
I am going to try this smoothie! It looks so yummy!!!! What I liked about the video is how you showed everything you are putting in the smoothie and how to do it if you don’t have a vitamix blender! Thank you!
Of course! We know that everyone has all different types of blenders and that you can still make a rawkin smoothie no matter what.
Hi Jen. Did you write a book? that is really cool. I like to make smoothies too. I am a new subscriber.
Hey Eric! Thanks for subscribing. 😊
Jen has written two awesome books. You can find them here: simplegreensmoothies.com/books
I have been drinking your smoothies since 2013 and this recipe is still my go to recipe! When I get others to drink green smoothies this is the recipe I share always. I want to come work for you! So awesome!
Your smoothies are so bright green!!! I love the time warp! I can't wait to try this in my tired old blender...pick me for the giveaway!!!
The key to the green (which I'm obsessed with) is using light fruits like pineapple, mango, peaches and grapes. Once you add berries you lose that gorgeous green color. Yet berries taste so good and have so many great benefits as well- so it just depends on the day. :)
Simple Green Smoothies A-ha! Thanks! I do love berries too. But I’ll try this trick!
Hi Jen, I am so glad you continue to share your healthy smoothies to the world. SGS introduced me to green smoothies. I have been with SGS from the beginning. I have enjoyed every healthy recipe that you have shared. I also have your book. Continued BLESSINGS for SGS!!!!
This video made my mouth water! I love your smoothies. My husband and son are picky eaters, but your smoothies help me get them some nutrition. My son, now 10, has been helping make them since your book first came out. This one and the fruit cocktail are two of his faves! Thank you for all that you are doing with this healthful journey! You have helped my little family and we love you and your family for it!
Your use of visuals and your high energy makes me feel like I can makes this, too!!!
You can Taryn, go for it and let us know what you think. Thanks!!
I discovered you guys back in 2016 and have introduced lots of people to your recipes for smoothies using water and frozen fruit instead of ice and milk/yogurt. I even did a 30 day challenge and my skin was glowing! Thanks guys!
Awesome. Thanks for the tip about putting the greens in first if you have a cheap blender.
So easy even a husband can make it. Two thumbs up!
Haha awesome, Alex! Happy blending! 😁
The video was clear and well edited. The voice and speed was fine. I liked your tips on measuring, mixing and substitutions. Great job on introducing the Vitamix, your book and your channel. I love your recipes and would love to have a Vitamix blender to enjoy them even more!
Woohoo!!! I think I'm off to a solid start! I'll make sure to tell Ryan what you said- I think it's all great feedback Thanks Sabrina!
I have been subscribing to your website for years and this video just brought me back to the first time I made this smoothie and how tasty and simple it was. :) Thanks Jen.
Awe thanks Julia! How long have you been with SGS?
I love this video! I don't find you awkward at all! In fact I feel like a friend is talking to me. I love all you do. I have your cookbook and it has changed my smoothie game. This blender would help take it to the next level!
Hey Sarah!!! You are our lucky Vitamix winner!!! Wahooo!!!! Could you send me an email to hello@simplegreensmoothies.com with your full name, address, and phone number so we can get your blender to you? SO excited for you!! :-)
Simple Green Smoothies I just emailed you!!
The video is awesome! Not having to "pre-blend" my greens and water would be a dream come true! I am thankful for my "Old Faithful", but your blender gets it all smooth and perfect at the same time--it's like the Chuck Norris of blenders!! Keep the videos coming!
Best comment so far! You just made my night with the Chuck Norris. Thanks for the encouragement Nanette!
I Love the Simple Green Smoothie girl! I have taken the 7 day challenge and found my go to daily smoothie recipes for years to come. The smoothie recipe book is awesome and now I will never tire of the same old thing every day. I look forward to eventually trying them all. Thanks!!
The video was great I love that the blender blend everything all at once you don't have to pre blend the greens. You did a great job
I really love the tip on measuring the spinach by handfuls & LOVE the beautiful bright green color of this finished smoothie:). Thank you for this helpful instruction...GREAT JOB!!!
I love your green smoothie recipes. Jadah Sellner gifted me the Simple Green Smoothies book - for being the first one to answer one of her questions. Since then I’ve been making your recipes and they’re amazing! No more boring or ridiculously bad tasting smoothies for me, I love that you incorporate tropical fruits that makes a whole difference in taste and texture. This is so great especially for kids - they love sweet stuffs and if they can get it from their smoothies - then everyone wins. My whole family enjoy Simple Green Smoothies!
I love that you are doing smoothie recipe videos. I like the way you show how easy making a good smoothie is. Keep up the good work.
Thank you Beverly! I love being able to reach so many people this way.
Beginners Luck is one of my all time favorite green smoothies. I make sure my water is icy cold when I make mine. Yummers! Thanks Jen. You are a true rawkstar!
Yums! Simply LOVE your recipes! This combo is just amazing, my kids love it as well 😍 Thank you for spreading green love 💚
It makes us so happy to here about families drinking green smoothies together.. Thanks for your encouragement.
Thank you Jen and Simple Green Smoothie for a great recipe! This is one of my favorite green smoothies! I have my 85 year young mother staying for the summer and we have this green smoothie, or one like it every day! Love it... Keep up the good work, great video!
Jen, you had great tips and your voice and voice speed were perfect. The camera work and editing in the video are fantastic! I would love to have this blender and skip the step of blending the spinach and liquid before adding the fruit!
Thank you so much for the encouragement Nicolle!
I have been following simple great recipes for over 2 years .after few months of following and implementing I have seen lot of changes in my body such as glowing skin, energy improvement and full of nutrients, din’t not gained weight much (good for me) and mind you no need to sacrifice on the tastes! These are yum!!!😋😋
Wow looks delicious! I love the simplicity of all your recipes , I subscribed to your website years ago and still make your smoothies to this day. I love that I can get my daily dose of green veg in and it still taste delicious. Beginners luck is my go to and I always get asked what's in it , when I decide to share lol .
Thanks for sharing. I love that you've been a rawkstar for so long!!! Appreciate you hanging around and being a part of the community!
Thank you for this recipe. Just made it and it tastes just like it came from a smoothie shop. Had to sub mango for apple but still tasted fabulous 😋
Yayy!! So glad this one turned out great for you! Apple is great in this one, and superrr filling!
I LOVE this adding a RUclips channel! This is also my favorite green smoothie (along with many others). You make making green smoothies easy and un-intimidating as possible that I can do it! Thank you!
I’ve made this smoothie before and it’s so delicious. The mango makes all the difference. I highly recommend simple green smoothie recipe book!
Jen is the BEST! She breaks it all down and makes it so simple.
I think you are incredible for making such an engaging video! Like many others, I liked the substitution suggestion. My favorite part of this video, though, was the double-time segment while the smoothie was blending. That was fun, and added an element to the video that made me want to keep watching. Little things like that are so engaging!
Amanda, Thanks for your comment about the double-time segment. That is great feedback. I'm glad that you found the video engaging. You can check out our Rawkstar Substitution Guide if your interesting in more substitution options. simplegreensmoothies.com/tips/substitution-guide
Jen - love this video! The beginners luck smoothie began it all for me. Now I drink a green smoothie almost everyday!
This video is super awesome and professional! I'm in awe at how cool this whole company is. I started with these smoothies towards the beginning of the company and have followed along the way. The ingredient combinations are incredible and I still to this day have between 5-7 green smoothies a week with some of the original recipes! I love this video and the great tips, and think it will be super helpful for people just starting out with smoothies. :)
I really enjoyed this video,. I have started making & drinking some of your smoothies & really enjoy them. Thank you for sharing them with us.
Awesome Barbara!! Glad you are enjoying your smoothies :-)
Thanks for the tips for different blenders and substitutes for banana... This smoothie looks delicious, I can't wait to try it!! You seem so comfortable in front of the camera, looking forward to more videos!
I've learned how to give my body the proper fuel it needs to give me a healthy life by using your Simple Green Smoothie recipes, with the bonus being a 50 pound weight loss!! I have my favorites, but all the recipes are delicious.
Thank you so much for sharing your story and your discovery for health!
I just made one of your Green Smoothies this morning! I have your 50 green smoothie recipe book and LOVE IT! Very excited to see you are now on youtube, can't wait to see what you'll post next :)
I love the timer feature on this blender...and the power! I also love beginners luck recipe! It's my favorite go to.
I am so excited to have found your website. I just did the 7 day challenge and really liked it . I am really surprised at how easy and tasty the recipes were. I would love to have a Vitamix because everyone raves about them so much.
I started a plant based diet in January and couldn't be happier. Having a good blender seems to be essential for this lifestyle.
Congratulations on becoming plant based! You are a true rawkstar!
I absolutely love this recipe and can not wait to try it. Thanks for explaining that the greens and water need to be pre-blended if we have a smaller blender! This looks yummy!
I discover u 2 years ago I've been drinking your green drink smoothies for that long I can't believe it's been this long but let me tell you you did amazing on this video you look so relaxed and i can't wait to the next one!
Wow! Thanks for saying that! I feel to hot and strange when I do these videos. Your encouragement is gonna keep me going!
First off, LOVE your shirt. Born and raised AZ girl, now living in Washington state and still love the beautiful desert 😃 I made this recipe yesterday but with fresh kale from our garden in place of the spinach. Delicious! Kale yeah!
The desert can be a beautiful place, especially at night. That's great you used your own kale!
Thanks for sharing your green smoothie recipe. I like how you explained other substitutions, such as the avocado instead of bananas. I can't wait to try it myself! 😊👌
Let us know how you liked the smoothie! :-)
I liked the Beginner's Luck!
Great video! Thank you for sharing this smoothie with the world. My four year old and I LOVE this recipe. It's sweet and energizing a great way to start you day!
One of my favorite "go to" recipes. I have been following your programs and using your recipes for over a year and I feel great.
So good!!!! I am one of the million already; your app is everything! My kid loves her green smoothies! Thanks for sharing Jen!
I have not been sick once this year despite all the sickness around me. I credit my daily green smoothie & SGS! Love that this blender only takes 50 seconds! My blender is on it’s way out so it takes me 2 rounds of 2 mins to get a drinkable texture. Keep up with the videos! 🤗
I love the explanations for how to measure the spinach, the substitutions you can make and tips depending on what type of blender you use.
I have been making your smoothies ever since I signed up for your 30 day challenge a few years ago. I thought the video was very entertaining and getting tips about substitutions is helpful. Measuring greens is a little difficult so it’s nice to have a visual on the amount.
Your smoothies are always delicious. You have made me love them! I love that you just threw it all in together and blended. Easy-peasy!
The smoothie you made in the video was the first one I tried about 2 years ago and it is still my favorite. I think your video was awesome and I look forward to more!! Thank you!
I want more of these videos! You are so warm and delightful on screen! Love this smoothie recipe! I happen to have the ingredients and will make it for a tropical breakfast vacation today! Great tip to blend the greens and water first.
Jen, I loved the video! I especially like that you have a bowl of fruit on the counter from which you effortlessly grab a substitute for bananas and that you used your glass to measure the water. Such great little time saving tips! I have had "Beginner's Luck" many times and, of course, I love it!
We have beginner's luck at least twice a week in our house. It's also the one I make when I introduce new people to the wonderful benefits of having a green smoothie every day. I would love to see more videos. Simple plant based dinners or lunches to take to work would be great! Thanks for showing us how easy and yummy it is to add healthy foods to our daily lives.
Love the beginner's luck smoothie! It's by far my favourite. The Vitamix blender with the timer feature looks amazing. The video was great, keep them coming!
This is one of my go to smoothies in your book. I always love the last of it and makes me feel like I'm on the beach. Love the tip how to measure the spinach. I'm never too sure if I'm adding enough greens.
I agree this was the beginning for me and I've shared with many others. Thanks for doing what you do Jen!
I think you did great. Thank you for sharing. I love that the video wasn't too long, perfect amount of time for busy people
Loved your video and we downloaded the free challenge two weeks ago! We actually just started the week over because we loved them so much! Thanks for the tip on measuring greens, super helpful!
I have tried this recipe and it's fabulous! I am so grateful to all that Simple Green Smoothies has done to help guide me on living a healthier life.
You are very natural in front of the camera! You are able to get across the basics of making this smoothie in a short period of time. Timing is so important in doing something like this. You offered many easy and quick tips, especially for those just starting making delicious smoothies! I would have added that freezing bananas also helps in thickening the smoothie and making it extra cold which I really like! Great job Jen!
This video is terrific. Simple, concise, and you don’t waste any time getting the information to us! Very useable! Thanks so much for all you do!
This was the first smoothie I made when I found your site, also the jumping point for the many other smoothies I've made since. Keep up the great work!
I’ve been making this smoothie for quite a while now and I’ve loved it. Today I tried it with a tablespoon of almond butter mixed in and let me tell you it’s even better now!!!
Awesome!!
Thank you for sharing. I liked being able to see how you actually made the smoothie. Looks delicious. Looks like a great blender!
I've been a SGS fan for years! Love this smoothie and so glad you are now making videos!!
Great Job!! You are so "Real" your tips and recipes make it easier and easier to get this new lifestyle going... Thanks for the time you take to teach!
