Maprao (coconut)+spinach+parsley+tomato smoothy
It happened unexpectedly how I came up with a recipe of this smoothie or thick juice.
I was juicing my greens and then suddenly I've decided to use this juice to dissolve my coconut meat in a blender.
I took meat of a one young coconut, so the meat isn't old and quite soft yet, not more than 3mm of high
3 big red tomatoes ( each around 150g)
bunch of parsley (about 20g)
if you want you can add some spinach leaves too. it depends on your taste.
I added half of a glass of green juice made of spinach, tomatoes and parsley too. I used juice because I wanted my smoothie to be more liquid.
Then blend it till all ingredients are very smooth. That's it.
Number of tomatoes used as well depends on your taste , now sour and salty you want your smoothie to be. The more tomatoes, the more saltier and sour it'll become.
Parsley is awesome as it adds up a wonderful aroma, very fresh.
So, as you see it's all about experimenting and you can experiment with a taste too.
I've just given here an example of what it might be like.
meat of your coconut should be somewhat like that or a little bit thicker., but not old. Otherwise taste will be different.

Green juices
yesterday I made a nice celery + spinach juice. It looked beautiful in a glass, like emerald green water of the Andaman sea.
What I used to get one glass of juice :
2 big stalks of Celery
200 g of spinach
wonderful taste
surprisingly to me, because before according to other people descriptions that green juices must be of terrible taste , therefore one should put something of sweetness in them in a form of a banana or an apple. I just find it to be unnecessary as greens already have nice a bit salty taste.
not to spoil this taste you simply should add bok choy or any other mustard taste greens, then everything will be ok.
another variation today is:
3 stalks of celery
200g of spinach
200g of iceberg salad
what you get: 2 glasses of pure emerald green juice with soft salty taste
wonderful taste of spinach and it's a little salty
