Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen wild blueberries
- 1 fresh or frozen banana
- ¼ cup fresh cut pineapple
- ½ cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup baby spinach or kale
- 1 tbsp ground flax seed
- ½ cup 1% milk
- ½ cup water
- ¼ cup ice optional
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.
Notes
- You can use fresh or frozen fruit - frozen is great for convenience.
- Drink this smoothie as soon as you make it. It will keep in the fridge for up to 12 hours, but you'll have to re-stir it since the ingredients will separate in the fridge over time.
- To make this smoothie vegan, use a vegan protein powder instead of Greek Yogurt, and swap out the milk for coconut or almond milk (make sure to get the unsweetened variety with no carrageenan).
- Note: There is no added sugar in this recipe - all of the sugar comes from the fruit and dairy used!
