Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups baby spinach leaves
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 cup frozen mango chunks
- 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
- 1.5 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)
- 3 cubes ice cubes (optional)
Instructions
Wash the baby spinach leaves thoroughly under cold running water to remove any dirt or grit.
Peel the ripe banana and break it into smaller pieces for easier blending.
Add the spinach leaves, banana, frozen mango chunks, and frozen pineapple chunks into a high-powered blender.
Pour in the unsweetened almond milk and add the plain Greek yogurt.
For added sweetness, drizzle in the honey, if using.
If desired, sprinkle the chia seeds on top for an extra boost of nutrients.
Add ice cubes if you prefer a chillier and thicker smoothie consistency.
Blend the mixture on high speed for about 1-2 minutes, or until smooth and creamy. Stop and scrape down the sides of the blender if needed.
Taste test and adjust sweetness or thickness as preferred by adding more honey or a splash of almond milk.
Pour the smoothie into two glasses, serve immediately, and enjoy!
