New Green Smoothie!!

Guys I'm really excited about this! I love Kimberly Snyder's Glowing Green Smoothie but after having it every day I needed to mix it up.

I missed the thickness of a protein shake, but protein powder is too hard on my stomach right now so I had to find a new way to get that creamy texture. How? Almond milk and more banana.

I'm in love!!

This smoothie has a higher fruit : greens ratio and only makes one serving, but you can double up or add more greens to lower the sugar content or make enough to share.



Ingredients:
  • 1 banana
  • 1/2 pear
  • 1-2 cups spinach
  • 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • a few ice cubes
  • optional: I like to add a small splash of almond, vanilla, or coconut extract to make it special
    (a little goes a long way)
This drink is clean and will leave you feeling satisfied. Fruit is the most natural way to enjoy sugar and the spinach (which you won't even taste, I promise!) will give you energy and make your skin and hair shine. Fruits and vegetables rid our bodies of excess water and toxins, allowing us to look leaner and more muscular. Almond milk is delicious and so much easier on our digestive system than cow's milk.

I know you're going to love this as much as I do! Especially when you start feeling amazing by giving your body simple, natural ingredients. When we make an effort to put the best foods in our body we are able to perform at our highest, strongest, most beautiful level.
