We will definitely be hosting another Green Smoothie Challenge in the future…maybe we’ll even up the duration and do 14 or 30 days! I would love for everyone to post their final “favorite recipe/mix” in the comments section so that it can live on as a resource for green smoothie inspiration in the future.
Also, let us know how the challenge went for you. Did you finish all 7 Days? Is there anything we should do differently in the future!
Thanks for playing along!
