Peel the banana and break it into chunks.
In a blender, combine the banana chunks, frozen berries, spinach, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, and flaxseed meal.
Pour the oat milk over the ingredients in the blender.
Add the honey and vanilla extract for sweetness and flavor.
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy, ensuring that the spinach and frozen berries are fully integrated.
If the smoothie is too thick, add additional oat milk to reach your desired consistency and blend again.
Pour the smoothie into two glasses and serve immediately for the freshest taste.
Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of chia seeds or a small handful of fresh berries on top for added texture and visual appeal.
