Hi Dreena, I tried to post a comment on your smoothie post but I guess since I'm not on face book it wouldn't let me. I just wanted to mention that in your step 3 you say to pulverize your greens for a couple minutes. That is way to long if you have a Blendtec or a vitamix(I have a blendtec). As you know after running a Blendtec for 2 minutes your smoothie would be warm. Yuck! BTW, spirulina is also great in a smoothie and you can't taste it:)

veganhomemaker, thanks for the note. I made some clarification in my t/s article, since I was thinking of a standard blender (and when I did use a regular blender I would have to blend for a minute or two). Though, sometimes with all the frozen fruit I use in my smoothies I do have to pulse again a few times after running the whole juice cycle with my Blendtec, and even with that extra time it is still chilled. But, that's with all the frozen fruit. If the fruit is room temp, yes, the smoothie would indeed get warmish. So, thanks for catching that, I've made some edits. :)
