Green Smoothie

A nutritious and delicious green smoothie packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants for a refreshing drink.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups spinach
  • 1 banana
  • 1 cup almond milk (or any milk of choice)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1/2 cup frozen berries (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your ingredients: Start by washing your spinach thoroughly in cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Peel the banana and set aside. If you’re using frozen berries, measure out the desired amount and keep them nearby.
  2. Blend the base: In a blender, combine the washed spinach, peeled banana, and almond milk. Almond milk gives a nice creamy texture, but feel free to use dairy milk, soy milk, oat milk, or any other milk you prefer.
  3. Blend until smooth: Put the lid on the blender and blend everything together on high speed. You want to blend until the mixture is smooth with no chunks of spinach or banana left.
  4. Sweeten and add flavor: After blending, taste your smoothie. If you like it sweeter, add honey or maple syrup. You can also add frozen berries for additional flavor and natural sweetness.
  5. Add chia seeds: If you decide to include chia seeds, add them to the blender at this stage. Blend again until everything is well combined.
  6. Serve: Pour your green smoothie into a glass. Enjoy your nutritious blend right away for the best flavor and health benefits.

Notes

Serve immediately for the best taste. Can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
