I try to have one smoothie a day. It's an easy way to get protein, fruit, and veggies in for one meal. This is a super simple and quick recipe for my favorite green smoothie with protein and spinach. You can use different fruits and add in more veggies too!
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Servings: 1 serving
What You'll Need
1 cup non-dairy milk (I use almond or soy)
1/4 cup water (optional, depends on consistency preferences)
1 banana
1 cup of strawberries (you can opt for a fruit medley here instead)
1/2 cup of fresh spinach
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1 teaspoon of agave
1 scoop of vegan protein powder (I use Vega Protein & Greens Vanilla Powder)
1 tablespoon of flaxseed or chia seeds (optional)
Instructions
Starting with the non-dairy milk, combine non-dairy milk, water (optional), banana, strawberries, spinach, cinnamon, agave, and protein powder in a blender. Blend until smooth.
Serve immediately.
Tips!
You can add in the non-dairy milk and protein powder and just blend those first to get a smoother consistency and make sure all the protein powder is blended.
You can experiment with different greens such as kale or even a spring mix.
If you're using frozen fruit, you may need to blend the mixture up several times to avoid having small fruit pieces in your smoothie.
