One of my very favorite green fruit and veggie combos is full of flavor and vitamins. Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Iron, Potassium and Antioxidants will leave you feeling great. I whipped this up for myself Sunday afternoon after a wedding weekend with college friends in Mobile, Alabama, and it was a huge help. The flavor profile is opposite of our morning almond milk, berry and banana smoothie. This combination is bright and refreshing; the closer we get to spring and summer the more I will be drinking this green blend. All of the ingredients can be adjusted according to taste, but here are measurements to get you started. Give it a shot!
Afternoon Pick Me Up Green Smoothie:
1/2 c. Frozen Pineapple
1 Tbsp. Fresh Cilantro
2 c. Raw Spinach
Juice of 1/2 Lemon
1 c. Coconut Water
1 Tbsp. Chia Seeds
Optional but recommended – 3 Slices of Jarred Jalapeno
(you could use a tiny bit of a fresh jalapeno instead)
Enjoy!!
