How To Make a Spinach Smoothie?

Ingredients Overview:

For our smoothie recipe, you will only need these 4 ingredients to make this simple, refreshing smoothie.

1. BANANA: Bananas are loaded with nutrients that are beneficial for everyone. Besides being loaded with fiber and potassium, they help control high blood pressure, boost energy and increase stamina, and improve gut health and digestion.

2. FRESH BABY SPINACH: Baby spinach is considered a superfood, and it is rich in vitamin K and magnesium, two very important nutrients for bone health and bone density.  

3. FRESH PINEAPPLE: Pineapple contains large amounts of vitamin C, including your daily value of vitamin B6, copper, folate, potassium, magnesium, and iron.

4. BOTTLED WATER: Purified water or filtered water is better than tap water.

Notes and Quick Tips…

• It’s best to “freeze” all the fruit, including the package of fresh baby spinach, and keep them in zip-locked bags or sealed containers in your freezer.
• Add some ice cubes to make it thicker. If too thick, just add some additional water.
• Consume the smoothie right after preparing.
• Use the smoothie to make homemade ice pops in your freezer.

Options for Serving…

• If you want to make this smoothie more creamy, add some avocado and almond milk.
• For additional calcium? Add plain or vanilla yogurt to keep you feeling fuller longer.
• It’s also a great “green” treat for St. Patrick’s Day.
