This Berry Spinach Smoothie is my favorite green’ drink smoothie. It’s packed with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and has a good amount of protein. The flavor is fairly sweet and delicious. It is very satisfying and helps curb cravings. I’ve been making it for over two years now, and although I sometimes tweak an ingredient here and there, this is the recipe I always use as a base.
Prep Time: 2 minutes
Blend Time: 1 minute
Ready in: 3 Minutes
Serves: 1 or 2
Makes two tall glasses
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups of frozen berries (I use blueberries, blackberries, strawberries, raspberries, or mixed)
1 banana
1/3 c fat-free plain greek yogurt (optional, it’s great with or without, adds protein)
1/2 cup of orange juice or 2 tablespoons of the OJ concentrate with a little extra water (If you don’t have OJ or OJ concentrate, I’d sweeten the smoothie with some honey and add a little more water)
3-4 cups of spinach. (I grab 2 huge handfuls of fresh and it’s about 4 cups of it).
1/4 cup water (or ice if the berries are not frozen)
Note: For more nutrition, add ground flax seeds (about 1 tablespoon) and/or substitute coconut water for water.
Blend ingredients in a blender until smooth. Drink immediately.
By the way, if you are on the market for a new blender, definitely check out Blendtec, they are by far my favorite!
Enjoy.
