This green raspberry smoothie pudding is so tasty. Also, it’s a very healthy smoothie. It’s a tasty pudding! Or maybe it is a dessert. 🙂
Green Raspberry Smoothie Pudding Ingredients
Apple
Apples have uncommonly huge health benefits, and how to best enjoy them. Your mom didn’t use the term superfood but she knew about apples. “An apple a day keeps the doctor away” was the first nutritional advice I and many children heard from their moms. For this reason, we call them “the first superfood, ” and they had some sweetness to this raspberry smoothie pudding.
Lettuce
Lettuce has been called ‘the perfect weight loss food’ and ‘rabbit food’ but it is so much more. With amazing healing benefits and 20% protein by calories, it could be called ‘gorilla food’ instead. It is low in calories and high in fiber and cellulose. It is heart-healthy and has a great ratio of omega-3 fatty acids. Lettuce is a great alkaline-forming food that is low on the glycemic index that I like to include in my smoothies and juices.
Celery
Celery is a negative calorie food, meaning it takes the body more calories to digest it than the food itself contains making it a very good food for weight loss. One stalk of celery has only a few calories because it is full of healthy cellulose. It is 95% water, very alkaline, and filled with fiber. Its weight loss benefits are well known but you would be surprised at its other amazing properties.
Pumpkin Seeds
Pumpkin seeds are so good that I add them to many of my meals. The bonus nutrient value is that they are the only seed that is alkaline-forming. Filled with lots of minerals, are a good source of vitamin K and zinc, and contain phytosterols and L-tryptophan. They are also a great source of vitamin E and vitamin B while being a great protein.
These are a favourite of mine: Terrasoul Superfoods Organic Pumpkin Seeds are unsalted and 100% organic and are good for your health. “USDA Certified Organic, Non-GMO, Raw, Gluten-Free, Vegan.
Raspberries
Raspberries are a red sweet juicy delight to see and eat. They keep your metabolic rate high with high levels of trace mineral manganese and are one of the top 10 antioxidant-rich fruits. They are high in vitamin c and have more fiber than most fruits and vegetables.
Stevia
As I don’t use sugar. I often use stevia which is a healthy option. The stevia plant is incredibly sweet and also incredibly good for you. The leaf is 30 times sweeter than sugar while extracts are 300-400 times sweeter. The best stevia will, therefore, be the one that retains some whole-food value and is water-based. Liquid forms will be less processed. Go here to learn How to Get the Best Stevia Without the Bitterness.
Flaxseed
Golden flax meal offers a wonderful nutritional boost to almost any recipe. Omega-3 fatty acids, 4g of fiber, and lignans make for a heart-healthy nutritional combination. Mild in flavor and ground for a maximum bioavailability of nutrients, Organic Golden Flaxseed Meal can be inconspicuously added to almost any recipe – smoothies, shakes, breads, cookies, pancakes, over salads, and more.
Water
Unregulated chemicals in tap water are not good for us! Most of us already know that our tap water is filled with unregulated chemicals! And many of us always filter it before drinking it. I have for decades.
Here is the water filter I am using and very happy with it. The only way to remove fluoride is to use a reverse osmosis system and some are better than others. When I did my research this is the one I decided on.
