So I have been into the idea of “green” smoothies, which retain the fiber and nutrients of dark leafy greens while being sweet and easy to drink. After experimenting with several types of greens I’ve found that spinach blends up the smoothest in my non-professional blender.
This is the smoothie I had this morning:
- juice of 2 oranges
- 1 cup frozen mango chunks
- 1/2 – 3/4 cup frozen blueberries
- 1 banana
- 1 cup packed spinach leaves
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon or to taste
blend all ingredients and enjoy. You won’t taste the spinach but will reap the benefits of this vitamin and antioxidant rich smoothie! You can also add protein powder etc to your liking.
