Watercress green smoothie
Posted by: gary ()

I had a geen smoothie yesterday containing lots of water cress. It didn't agree with me and I spent much of the day on the loo! (or so it seemed).

Is water cress a poor choice?

I suppose it could have been something else I ate that gave me the toilet trouble.

i know what you mean....

i don't know much about watercress, but i tried it in a green smoothie once too. it was too spicy! it actually burned deep in my throat for awhile after i drank it, kind of painful.

i'm stickin to spinach, romaine, and mint leaves in my smoothies. smiling smiley

watercress smoothies are one of my favorites. you can't use too much of the watercress though, or yes, it will be too peppery and rich on the system. a small handful will do.

because I don't yet have a high-powered blender I'm limited to what greens will blend smoothly and so watercress, spinach and baby greens are my staples. Try the watercress blended with papaya and a banana...this works very well for me and its delicious.
