Ingredients

  • ½-¾ cup almond milk or coconut milk
  • 2-3 cups baby spinach leaves
  • 1 frozen ripe banana
  • 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks or mango chunks
  • Optional: stevia, honey, agave or other preferred sweetener, as needed for extra sweetness

Instructions

  • In a large, high-powered blender, add the ingredients in the order listed.
  • Start blending on low speed and increase to high.
  • Blend on high speed for 50-60 seconds until mixture is smooth.
  • If necessary, add in more milk to thin the smoothie. I like to use just 1/2 cup to start, then add more to get the consistency right, if needed.
  • Pour into a large glass and enjoy!

Notes

The specific ingredients are optional. Switch out with your favorites to make it your own. Makes 1 large smoothie.
