2. When the above is ready, wash the food. In particular, broccoli and celery may harbor a lot of germs and dirt.
3. Then, slice the pear to remove its core. Also, chop a cup-sized portion of broccoli.
4. On the other hand, cut the lemon in half and squeeze it by hand or with a citrus squeezer, always making sure that there’re no seeds left in its liquid.
5. Finally, blend all the ingredients and serve the smoothie.
