I'm so sorry that I haven't seen your smiling faces in a while, but as all you other hard working mommies know, sometimes things get out of CONTROL! But I'm back now so moving forward!
I recently started trying this new health supplement that is a meal replacement shake mix that you can create different "recipes" by adding different ingredients to it. So, of course I've been on the hunt for new and interesting smoothie/shake recipes & I came across this spinach one on Pinterest (which I am of course addicted to). Now, I really enjoyed it, but thought that I would play around with it to get a taste that was more to my personal liking. And while I was mulling over what I could change it hit me; Strawberry & Spinach Salad! You see them everywhere during the summer & why couldn't that concept work in a smoothie?! And, I know that some of you are thinking it's gross, but just try it! It's good for you and so YUMMY! So here is my
Strawberry & Spinach Smoothie Recipe
INGREDIENTS:
- 5 strawberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1/2 cup vanilla greek yogurt (if you can't find vanilla then use plain & add vanilla extract)
- 4oz almond milk
- 4oz orange juice
- 5 ice cubes (if not using frozen berries)
- whatever shake/protein powder you choose
- approx 2 1/2 cups spinach
DIRECTIONS:
- Place all ingredients in blender & blend until smooth.
- Pour into glass & drink up!
I love this for any meal but especially breakfast or lunch because I'm always rushing those two meals during the week. It's fast, easy, healthy & tastes great!
