Jocleyn's Green Smoothie

Jocelyn is my middle child and loves healthy things the most out of all my kids. She begs me for a salad to take to school and loves smoothies. She helped me make the one in the picture and she drank the whole thing in a few minutes. It gave her energy to do her theory that she LOVES....ya right!

In your blender, add:
1/2 C. unsweetened almond milk
1/2 C. cold filtered water (add more if it gets too thick)
1 handful spinach
6-8 frozen banana chunks*
1/2 orange, peeled
8 frozen strawberries

*Frozen bananas always taste better in smoothies because the thicken it up and help to make it creamy. At one time, I cut several bunches of bananas in 1-2 inch chunks, lay on cookie sheets, freeze and then store in large zip lock bags. That way, they are always ready.

  1. Love this! We make this exact thing except for the orange. I'm going to add that! Awesome! My kids drink it in a cup with a lid so they have no idea what color it is. Keeps it easy :-)
