Cantaloupe is one of those fruits that I often forget to add to my weight loss smoothies. I can't understand why, especially when considering its many great benefits: low in calories, easy to prepare, filling, easy to digest, nutritional value. Add to this smoothie a couple of little green factors (spinach and pistachios) and you have yourself not only a refreshing and delicious formula, but also one that will make you feel good inside and out. Try my recipe and tell me how you like it!
