Vegan Spinach Pears Smoothie, creamy tasty nutritious blended drink made of vegetable and fruity goodness best for breakfast or diet or a part of weight loss. I am a big fan of cool drinks i love beverages served chill especially at the time of summer. I love smoothies as it less in calories and makes to feel the fullness of stomach. Love to have them at any time beyond time limits. I used to prepare smoothies generally with bananas and milk for the consistency and taste. This time for a change i tried Vegan smoothie with pears and spinach.

I bough rosemary pears and kept inside the fridge one week before Easter. Now they ripe and become so soft like guava or like avocado. I was planning to make the same green smoothie with avocado. When i ate the pears the idea clicked in my mind why cant i try to make the smoothie with these soft pears. The result was outstanding, a creamy tasty smoothie beyond my expectations.
