Stocking up the Kitchen for my 28 Days of Raw & Green Smoothie Challenge


Keeping my raw kitchen stocked is the first step to success in eating raw.  As with any type of change in lifestyle as we begin to clear out the clutter we begin to fill it with items that will ultimately serve us.

To find success in your 28 Day Green Smoothie Challenge you will need to create space for all the healthy produce that you will need for at least 3-5 days at a time.

Here is what I have handy so that it is a snap to put together a green smoothie every day.
