Ingredients
Scale
Produce
- 2 cups Baby spinach (packed)
- 1 medium Banana
- 1/2 cup Kiwi (frozen)
- 3/4 cup Mango (frozen)
- 1 medium Orange (peeled and divided into sections)
Dairy & Alternatives
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
- 1/2 cup Full-fat Greek yogurt
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a high-power blender, add the baby spinach, banana, frozen kiwi, frozen mango, peeled orange sections, unsweetened almond milk, and full-fat Greek yogurt. Gathering these fresh and frozen ingredients prepares the base of the smoothie for blending.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture on high speed for 30 to 60 seconds until the ingredients are fully pureed and the smoothie is creamy and uniform in texture, ensuring no chunks remain.
- Adjust Consistency: If you prefer a thinner smoothie, gradually add more almond milk and blend briefly to incorporate. This step lets you adjust the thickness of your smoothie to your personal preference.
Notes
- You can substitute almond milk with any milk of your choice such as cow’s milk, oat milk, or soy milk.
- Using frozen fruits helps create a chilled, thicker smoothie without needing to add ice which can dilute flavor.
- For a dairy-free version, replace Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt.
- Add a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseeds for extra fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
- Adjust sweetness by adding a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup if desired.
