Turmeric Green Smoothie Recipe
Description
The smoothie is prepared simply by blending fresh baby spinach leaves with pineapple chunks, turmeric powder, ground flaxseed, water, and unsweetened almond milk until smooth. The addition of black pepper can help activate compounds in turmeric, while coconut oil adds a delicate richness. The result is a green smoothie with a bright sweetness from pineapple and smooth texture from the liquid components, combined with mild spiciness from turmeric and black pepper, and nutritional benefits from flaxseed and spinach.
