Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh spinach (packed)
- 1/2 ripe banana (frozen preferred for creaminess)
- 1/2 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or frozen)
- 1/2 orange, peeled and segmented
- 1/2 inch fresh ginger, peeled
- 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut water (or water)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- Optional: 1/2 cup ice cubes
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a high-speed blender: spinach, banana, pineapple, orange, ginger, coconut water, and chia seeds.
- If using, add the optional ice cubes.
- Blend on high until completely smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, add a little more coconut water until desired consistency is reached.
- Pour into a glass and serve immediately.
Cooking Tips
- For an extra creamy and chilled smoothie, always use frozen banana and pineapple. You can also freeze your spinach ahead of time!
- Feel free to experiment with other leafy greens like kale or a mix of greens for varied nutrients.
- Boost the protein content by adding a scoop of your favorite plant-based protein powder or a tablespoon of almond butter.
- Make it ahead: Prepare all dry ingredients (except liquids) in a freezer bag the night before. In the morning, just dump into the blender with liquid and blend!
