- 0.5 cups Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 tablespoons ground flaxseed
- 1 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoons honey (optional)

Instructions
Wash the fresh spinach thoroughly and pat it dry using a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.
Peel the banana and set it aside.
In a blender, add the fresh spinach, frozen mixed berries, banana, and unsweetened almond milk as the base liquid.
Scoop in the Greek yogurt to add extra creaminess and probiotics.
Sprinkle the chia seeds and ground flaxseed into the blender. These add fiber and omega-3 fatty acids to your smoothie.

If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add a small drizzle of honey (optional).
Toss in the ice cubes for a chilled, refreshing texture.
