Post Spinach gone to seed
on: July 10, 2010, 02:01

My spinach is growing faster then I can pick it and a lot of it has
gone to seed. Can I use the whole thing for a smoothie or
should I just pick off the leaves? Would the stem part that has the
seeds on it give me a tummy ache if I ate them?

Hi!

Lots of smoothies include seeds in them, so if spinach seeds aren’t bad for you, then it’s probably okay to use. :)

You may also want to try just picking them and storing them in zip lock bags in the freezer. this should keep them fresh for longer. :)

Hey, can I ask you a question. Trying to come up with a good title/headline for a smoothies page. I have like 20… but now I can choose. Would you be willing to help me out? Let me know! I won’t post them yet :)

    I usually add about 1 -2 cups of water. It depends on what sort of texture you desire.

    I tried carrot and apple but there are too much fibre that makes the smoothie not too nice to drink. Mango, bananas, pineapple does a better job! I just tried making it with coconut water and flesh and the consistency of the smoothie is great! Try it.

    I have been making green smoothies for about 10 months and love them. I was wondering if I can use Rue, Lavendar, Lemon Balm and Sage in my green smoothies as the greens alone, several handfuls. Or do I only add them as a flavor, a couple of leaves? I don’t know much about Rue so not really sure what to do with it. Would appreciate any advice. Thanks

    I think it gets bitter when it goes to seed. It has been so hot here and many of my greens are “bolting” too.
