Danika Vanderpyl
Truly, this simple spinach smoothie with fruit is delicious and easy! It's a great first-time green smoothie to make. Just blend fresh spinach, your favorite frozen fruit, seeds (like chia seeds), banana, and any milk for the perfect healthy blend.

Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups spinach (2 large handfuls)
  • 1 banana
  • 2 ½ cups frozen fruit (use your favorite frozen fruit ideas below)
  • 1 ½ cup milk (any kind)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds or 1 tablespoon flax, or 2 tablespoon hemp hearts

Instructions
 

  • Place the spinach, banana, and milk in the bottom of the blender. Add the seeds and frozen fruit on top.
  • Blend until smooth! Makes 1 large smoothie or 2 medium smoothies.

Notes

Frozen fruit ideas: Strawberries, mango, pineapple, blueberries, mixed berries, or tropical fruit (nutritional details in blog post). Use 2.5 cups of one of these fruits or mix and match your favorite fruit (make sure it's frozen for the best texture!)
Dairy free: Use dairy-free milk.
Coconut water or orange juice: Replace the milk with coconut water for a more tropical flavor! Or orange juice for a sweeter taste.
Thick Smoothie: Add more frozen fruit until it's your desired consistency. It’s best to use a high power blender with a tamper to push frozen fruit into the blade. You can also use a high power food processor if it's better quality than your blender.
Thinner: Add more milk into the blender until it's your desired consistency. Or use fresh fruit instead of frozen fruit.
Kale and other greens: These can be used instead of spinach in this green smoothie!
Supplements and protein powder: this is a great smoothie to add your nutrient booster or protein powder to.
To double: This smoothie can easily be made for more than 2 servings. You can simply double all the ingredients. If you want to quickly make a bit more just add another banana.
