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.
