I was actually on twitter searching for an easy collard green recipe, and whala! Here it was! Raw and delicious sounding. I had all the ingredients plus the vita mix blender my family got from Costco, so I whipped up a 3 banana, 2 cup water, 2 fresh and cleaned, extra large collard green leaves minus the stems and made it into a smoothie. It was absolutely great! And it wasn't bitter tasting or gross like I thought it would be. I had three full glasses and gave a tall glass to my father who likewise agreed that yeah, it's a wonderful smoothie. Very healthy. Thanks Mike.

I have yet to decide if I will make just a little bit to taste it. <br><br>Oh, and I watched your u-tube videos on how to make those smoothies. I notice you don't wash any of the fruits or veggies beforehand. That's not good. What with the latest scare on ecoli infected spinach and other food items, I would be careful. Oh, and I notice that you tasted your smoothie before pouring it into the glass jar by sipping it directly from the vitamix juicer. That's not good either as the bacteria from your saliva and mouth will spoil all of your precious smoothie before you have a chance to finish it off.<br><br>I like your idea of eating and drinking healthy though.
