- 2 handfuls fresh spinach or ¾ cup frozen
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup frozen mango, heaping
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter or to taste
- 2 scoops vanilla protein powder I like collagen powder or vanilla whey protein powder. Or ½ cup Greek yogurt.
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon ground flax
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- ½-1 cup water or to achieve desired texture
Add milk and spinach to your blender. Puree until smooth and no chunks of greens remain.This step will help ensure that your greens get entirely pureed so that you don't end up with a chunk of spinach in a gulp of smoothie. Add mango, peanut butter, protein powder, chia seeds, vanilla, and ground flax to the blender. Blend again. Check for desired consistency. If needed, add water ½ cup at a time or some ice and reblend if needed.
Pour into two glasses, and enjoy right away.
