Mean Green Smoothies
Ok – I admit it.  I don’t eat enough vegetables.  Wait, I take that back…..  I don’t eat enough vegetables that haven’t been fried.  Probably not the best way to eat them for nutritional value, but heck – they sure do taste good.  😉
But, I need those vegetables.  My kids need those vegetables.  Heck, we all need them!  Even if we don’t wanna. Â
Mean Green Smoothies
Servings 3 /4 of a blender full
Ingredients
- 1 16oz pack of frozen strawberries
- 8 oz can pineapple including juice
- 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt
- 1 cup orange juice
- 2 cups spinach
- 2 bananas sliced
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients until combined in a blender. Blend until smooth. Add more orange juice if needed. Serve immediately.
This is a good Smoothie, if you want to maintain the green color do not use all of the strawberries, only use three or 4 berries if your smoothie to look like the picture above. Otherwise the color is kind of blah. For a green Smoothie use spinach only, pink/red Smoothie use the Strawberries only. However you decide to make this Smoothie it is simply “Delish” as spoken by my Grandaughter.
That makes alot can you bring down some ingredients so it dosen’t make so much, and still taste the same, cause I have heard if you don’t drink it then don’t store it because it looses it nutrients..
