Description

A quick, nourishing green smoothie packed with greens, fruit, and chia seeds, perfect for busy mornings or as a post-workout drink.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup spinach or kale
  • 1/2 banana
  • 1/2 apple
  • 1/2 cup almond milk
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional)


Instructions

  1. Add the leafy greens and half a banana to the blender to form the green base.
  2. Add the apple for natural sweetness and a little body.
  3. Pour in almond milk to control thickness.
  4. Add chia seeds and optional honey for extra nutrients and sweetness.
  5. Blend until completely smooth and serve immediately.

Notes

Wash greens and apple well. Increase almond milk to 3/4 cup for a creamier smoothie. Add a scoop of protein powder or Greek yogurt for more protein.
