Notes
- Variations:
- Use Kale: Substitute the spinach for fresh kale (it may need to be blended longer as kale has a tougher texture than spinach.
- No Banana: You can replace the banana with 1/4 cup of coconut milk (even better if you freeze the milk into ice cubes beforehand!).
- Dairy-Free: To make it dairy-free, use plant-based milk and substitute classic Nutella for homemade vegan Nutella (or almond butter and unsweetened cocoa powder).
- Make Popsicles: This smoothie makes great popsicles! Just pour the mixture into popsicle molds and freeze for 4-6 hours (the recipe is in my book For the Love of Popsicles).
