Spinach-Banana-Strawberry-Pineapple Smoothie

Greetings all!

If you ever need a quick, healthy, and delicious snack, try this spinach-banana-strawberry-pineapple smoothie! I actually love it as a lunch substitute when I do not have enough time for a proper sit-down meal.

Image and recipe idea from 

Ingredients: 

  • A handful of spinach (optional)
  • 1 cup of milk
  • 1 banana
  • ½-1 cup of strawberries
  • ½-1 cup of pineapple chunks

 Instructions and variations:

  • You can use fresh or frozen fruits/veggies.
  • If using spinach, add it to the blender first, then add milk and blend for a few seconds to make sure spinach is fully submerged! When I added spinach on top after all the other ingredients, it did not want to blend properly so I learned my lesson! Spinach first! Also you do not taste it in the smoothie at all!
  • Then add banana, strawberries, and pineapple and blend until the desired consistency.
  • You can use other dairy products, pineapple juice instead of pineapples (original recipe), or even water.
  • If you add less liquid, you will have a delicious sorbet.
  • If you want more of a dessert drink, do banana+milk+1 tablespoon of cacao. You can also add some ice-cream :)

Bon Appetit! Let me know how you like it!
