Apple Mint Chutney


I dug through my fridge this morning-ish looking for something to make for breakfast. Of course my mind jumped to, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away." Next, I grabbed the spinach, mint, and parsley- aiming for a fresher approach. Noticing that I didn't have many veggies in stock, and not knowing what would go well with the above ingredients, I said "Oh, hey, let's just see how this turns out."

Realizing it wasn't enough to make a juice, (it was already smelling devine after a few seconds on variable 1) I instantly knew what I was creating!

Lo and behold: Apple Mint Chutney!

1 Gala Apple peeled & cored
1 Handful of Parsley
4 mint Leaves
1 Handful of Spinach
2-3 Ice Cubes

Blend on Variable 1-5 until desired consistency.

*Chutneys are a type of condiment used all over the world. They can be made from vegetables, fruits, spices, peppers, oils, yogurt or herbs and sometimes nuts. =) Chutneys can be used on sandwiches, as a dip for fruits and veggies, or as a dressing on chicken, fish, meat or salads.

There is lit'rally no end to the possibilities in chutney land!
