Description

A delicious and nutritious smoothie packed with fruits and greens to brighten your day and boost your skin’s radiance.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Banana
  • 1 cup Spinach
  • 1/2 cup Greek Yogurt
  • 1/2 cup Almond Milk (or any milk of choice)
  • 1 cup Mixed Berries (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 tablespoon Honey or Maple Syrup (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon Chia Seeds or Flaxseeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • A pinch of Cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prep your ingredients: Start by peeling the banana and gathering your spinach, yogurt, berries, and almond milk.
  2. Layering is key: In your blender, add the almond milk first. Then, add the spinach, banana, Greek yogurt, frozen berries, chia seeds, and sweetener.
  3. Blend it up: Start on a low setting and gradually increase to high. Blend for about 30-60 seconds until smooth.
  4. Taste test: Stop the blender and taste to adjust sweetness. Add more almond milk if too thick.
  5. Serve it up: Pour into a glass and stir. Optionally, sprinkle chia seeds on top.

Notes

For an easy breakfast, pre-bag the ingredients (minus the liquid) and freeze them. Just add almond milk and blend in the morning.
