Ingredients
- 1 cup spinach fresh or frozen
- 1 small banana frozen or fresh
- 1/2 cup almond milk or any milk of your choice
- 1/2 cup pineapple fresh or frozen
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds or flax seeds
- 1 teaspoon honey optional for added sweetness
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt optional for creaminess
- 1/4 cup ice cubes optional for a chilled smoothie
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
- Start by gathering your ingredients. If you’re using frozen fruits, it’s best to let them sit out for a few minutes to soften up just a bit. This will make blending easier.
Step 2: Blend
- Place all your ingredients into a blender. Start by adding the spinach first, followed by the banana, pineapple, almond milk, and any other extras like yogurt or honey.
- Blend on high until smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, add more almond milk or water until you get your desired consistency.
Step 3: Taste and Adjust
- Take a quick taste test! If you need more sweetness, add a little extra honey or a few more pineapple chunks. If you prefer a thinner consistency, just add more liquid.
Notes
- Frozen Fruits: Frozen fruits make the smoothie colder and give it a thicker texture, making it more enjoyable to sip.
- Adjust Sweetness: You might not need the honey, depending on your taste. Pineapple adds a natural sweetness, so adjust accordingly.
