I’m happy to say I have a long history with Becky Striepe‘s e-book (and now book), 40 Days of Green Smoothies. Way back in 2012, I reviewed 40 Days and hosted my very first giveaway ever. Then in 2014, I shared this wonderful book once again so that readers unfamiliar with Becky’s work could find out what they were missing. I’m so pleased for and proud of Becky for  producing a softcover version of it. 

40 Days provides the reader with 6 weeks of nutrition-packed smoothies like Mango Mama, Mexican Iced Chocolate, Peach Party, and Beet Greens and Berries. Each week begins with a shopping list that makes it easy for you to have everything you need.

For a tasty preview of the book, make Becky’s delicious and decadent-tasting (yet very healthy) Chocolate Covered Cherry Smoothie (the green in this one? parsley!) and enter the giveaway for a chance to win the 40 Days e-book so you can enjoy the remaining 39 smoothies!

    My go to smoothie combination is frozen bananas (always! for added creaminess), with a chai spice mix (cinnamon, cloves, ginger, nutmeg). Then I top with tons of shredded coconut!

    My go-to is frozen banana, berries (any kind), coconut water, kale or spinach or some other green, a splash of hibiscus tea (always on hand), a squeeze of lemon or lime, and a pinch of green stevia. Always works for me.

    My go to smoothie always includes frozen bananas. I buy them when they go on sale at the store. From there it can be anything but my favorite is melted vegan chocolate and a touch of sweetener.

    This looks so goood! I can’t wait to try it. I’m obsessed with my chocolate protein buckwheat smoothie at the moment.
