A Green Smoothie is a refreshing, nutrient-packed drink blending leafy greens with fruits like banana and apple. It’s a perfect, easy-to-make breakfast or snack full of vitamins, minerals, and protein, offering a delicious, healthy boost!

Ingredients

  1. 1 cup spinach (or kale, if you prefer)
  2. 1 ripe banana (frozen for a thicker texture)
  3. 1/2 apple, cored and sliced
  4. 1/2 cup pineapple (fresh or frozen)
  5. 1/2 cup almond milk (or any milk of choice)
  6. 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional, for fiber and omega-3s)
  7. 1 tablespoon peanut butter or almond butter (optional, for healthy fats)
  8. 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
  9. Ice cubes (optional, for a colder, thicker smoothie)

Instructions

Prepare the smoothie base: In a blender, combine the frozen banana, frozen raspberries, Greek yogurt, almond milk, honey (if using), and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, add more milk to reach your desired consistency.

  1. Assemble the smoothie bowl: Pour the smoothie mixture into a bowl, using a spatula to scrape out all the delicious goodness.
  2. Add toppings: Top your smoothie bowl with your favorite toppings such as fresh raspberries, sliced banana, granola, chia seeds, nuts, shredded coconut, or any other topping you love.
  3. Serve and enjoy: Enjoy your vibrant, nutrient-packed smoothie bowl immediately with a spoon!

Notes

  1. This smoothie bowl is easily customizable. Feel free to swap raspberries for other fruits like strawberries or blueberries.
  2. If you want a thicker consistency, add more frozen fruit or reduce the amount of liquid.
  3. Perfect for meal prep! Prepare the base ahead of time and add fresh toppings before serving.
