Spinach and Kiwi Smoothie| Green Smoothie with Kiwi - I have mentioned already in my last green smoothie post i have tried various green smoothie combinations in a week and posted some of them. This one also i made that week and was waiting to post. Vishu preparations and the celebrations delayed this post. Like the other green smoothies this is also a yummy nutritious smoothie which could be prepared in a jiffy.
