Power Soup!

I found this recipe in the "Fundamentals" recipe of the Raw Food Detox Diet book. Supposedly it's a soup, but I like it as a smoothie. It should be enjoyed 10-15 minutes before a meal or a snack - always on an empty stomach. This smoothie throws a punch of enzymes at you, so watch out...you just might feel fabulous afterward!

1 cup organic alfalfa sprouts
3 cups fresh strawberries
3 tbsp. raw honey
1 large head Romaine lettuce
1/4 medium beet (optional for a deep red color for the soup)
You can also add a little Stevia for added sweetness, but I like it just the way it is.

Blend until very smooth. Best when served immediately, but it will last in the refrigerator for 2 days. Makes 2-3 servings.
