Tomorrow is St. Patrick’s day and while I won’t be partaking in the consumption of any green beer, I can certainly enjoy one of these! This tastes just like a creamscicle and is loaded with baby spinach.
1 Tangelo
1/2 cup frozen mango pieces
1 cup coconut milk
1/2 tsp of vanilla extract
3 cups of baby spinach
Blend fruit and liquids first then add in spinach. Voila! A delicious green smoothie!
My son is a notoriously picky eater and like a lot of kids hates anything green. I came up with this concoction to see if I could get some spinach into him and it worked like a charm! I also found it to be a great option when I am craving something sweet but don’t want to deviate from the plan.
Chocolate Banana Smoothie
1 banana
2 ice cubes
1 Tbsp of almond butter
1 cup almond milk
1Tbsp unsweetened organic cocoa
2 Tsp of raw honey
1/4 Tsp vanilla extract
2 cups of spinach
Blend until smooth. You may need a little more almond milk, I always eyeball it when I make smoothies.
