Wash the spinach leaves thoroughly and pat dry.
In a blender, combine the spinach, frozen mango chunks, frozen pineapple chunks, banana, and almond milk.
Add the chia seeds, fresh lemon juice, and ice cubes to the blender.
Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more almond milk and blend again.
Taste and adjust sweetness if needed. The natural sweetness from the fruit is usually sufficient.
Pour into two glasses and serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Optional garnish: Sprinkle a few chia seeds or a lemon wedge on the rim of each glass for an extra touch.
