1 red pepper
120g
1/2 avocado
100g
1 tbs seaweed
2g

Instructions:

1. Preparing the Ingredients:
- Lemon: Cut the lemon in half and squeeze out the juice. Make sure to remove any seeds. Set aside.
- Apple: Core the apple and cut it into chunks. There's no need to peel it unless you prefer a smoother texture.
- Zucchini: Chop the zucchini into small pieces. Leave the skin on for added nutrients and fiber.
- Kale: Wash the kale thoroughly and remove the tough stems. Roughly chop the leaves.
- Red Pepper: Deseed the red pepper and cut it into chunks.
- Avocado: Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh.
- Seaweed: Measure out 1 tablespoon of seaweed. You can use dried seaweed; just make sure it's finely chopped or crushed.
2. Blending:
- Place the apple chunks, zucchini pieces, chopped kale, red pepper chunks, and avocado flesh into a high-speed blender.
- Pour in the lemon juice.
- Add the tablespoon of seaweed.
- If you prefer a thinner consistency, add a small amount of water or your favorite juice (approximately 1/2 to 1 cup).
3. Blending Process:
- Secure the blender lid and start blending on a low setting to break down the larger pieces.
- Gradually increase the speed to high and blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
4. Serving:
- Taste the smoothie and adjust the consistency or flavor if necessary. You can add more water or a touch of natural sweetener like honey or maple syrup if desired.
- Pour the smoothie into glasses.
- Serve immediately for the best flavor and nutrient retention.
5. Enjoy:
- Enjoy your refreshing and nutritious Apple Veggie Green Smoothie as a healthy breakfast option, a revitalizing snack, or a post-workout beverage!

Tips:

- Preparation: Wash and roughly chop all the vegetables and fruits before blending to ensure a smooth consistency. Removing seeds from the apple is also recommended.

- Blending: For a smoother texture, blend the ingredients in stages. Start with the softer items like avocado, kale, and seaweed, and then gradually add the apple, zucchini, and red pepper.

- Customization: Feel free to customize your smoothie by adding a bit of honey or a natural sweetener if you prefer a sweeter taste. You could also add some chia seeds or flax seeds for an extra nutritional boost.

- Serving: Serve the smoothie immediately for the freshest taste. If you prefer your smoothie colder, add a few ice cubes or use frozen vegetables and fruits.

- Storage: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Stir well or re-blend before drinking.
