Ingredients
- 1 cup almond milk or other milk (see note 1)
- 1 small banana
- 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks (about 4 ounces, see note 2)
- 2 cups fresh spinach (see note 3)
- 1 coop protein powder or ½ cup Greek yogurt (see note 4)
- 2 tablespoons flax seeds (see note 5)
Instructions
- In the bottom of a blender, add almond milk, banana, pineapple, spinach, protein powder or Greek yogurt, and flax seeds. Blend until smooth.
Notes
- Milk: Use regular cow’s milk or your favorite non-dairy milk such as almond milk, cashew milk, oat milk, or soy milk. From skim to whole, any fat level will do.
- Pineapple: To substitute fresh pineapple (peeled, cored, and chopped), add ½ cup ice or more to the blender.
- Spinach: To take your spinach over the top, substitute a 10-ounce block of frozen spinach, thawed, for the 2 cups fresh. It’s intense but amazing!
- Protein powder: Use either your favorite vanilla protein powder or ½ cup Greek yogurt.
- Flax or chia seeds: Add 2 tablespoons of flax seeds or chia seeds for an extra boost of protein, fiber, and healthy fats.
- Yield: This recipe makes about 2 cups of smoothie, enough for 1 serving.
- Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Some separation may occur, so shake or stir to combine before enjoying.
