Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables and Fruits
- 2 cups Baby spinach (packed)
- 1 medium Banana
- 1/2 cup Kiwi (frozen)
- 3/4 cup Mango (frozen)
- 1 medium Orange (peeled and divided into sections)
Dairy and Liquids
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
- 1/2 cup Full-fat Greek yogurt
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a high-power blender, add the spinach, banana, frozen kiwi, frozen mango, orange sections, almond milk, and Greek yogurt. This ensures all ingredients are ready for blending.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture on high for 30-60 seconds, or until smooth. This process incorporates all ingredients into a creamy, consistent texture.
- Adjust Consistency: If you prefer a thinner smoothie, gradually add more almond milk until you reach the desired consistency. This allows you to personalize your smoothie thickness.
Notes
- Use frozen fruits to create a cold, thick smoothie texture without adding ice.
- For a vegan version, replace Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt alternative.
- Add a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseeds for extra fiber and omega-3s.
- Adjust sweetness naturally by selecting ripe fruits or adding a touch of honey or maple syrup if desired.
