Cucumber, Chile, and Lime Smoothie | Breakfast

One of my favourite summertime treats for my family is sliced fresh cucumbers with a

squeeze of lime and a sprinkling of salt and cayenne. I'm happy to share this spicy treat

with you in the form of a smoothie. It's satisfying at the same time light and refreshing.

Ingredients

Medium cucumbers, peeled - 2 each

Freshly squeezed lime juice - 2 tablespoons

Ground cayenne - 1/8 teaspoon

Small green bell pepper, seeded - 1/2 each

Filtered water - 1/2 cup

Ice - 1 cup OR filtered water - 1/2 cup

Sea salt - to taste

Garnish: green bell pepper slices

Instructions

Place all of the ingredients, except the garnish in a high powered blender. Start on low, and then increase the speed to high. Blend until smooth.

Top each serving off with a slice of green bell pepper, and then serve.
