Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh Spinach
- 1 medium Banana
- 2 cups Orange Juice
- 2 cups Non-Fat Milk 2% Milk can be substituted.
- 8 large Frozen Strawberries
- ½ cup Frozen Blueberries

Instructions
- Gather your berry banana smoothie ingredients.
- Blend spinach, orange juice and milk together first.
- Once the spinach has blended well, add all other ingredients and blend until well combined.
- I like to use frozen fruit, but if using fresh fruit, you can add in some ice cubes to create more of an ice cold smoothie consistency.
- *Next, add any optional Protein Powder and blend on a low speed for 10-20 seconds, or until well combined.
- Finally, pour your berry banana smoothie into glasses, and enjoy right away to ensure it's cold and doesn't separate.
Notes
- *Smoothie Consistency: Your smoothie will have a better consistency if you don't over blend the protein powder.
- Serving Adjustments: If making for two, just cut the recipe in half.
