BLUEBERRY SPINACH SMOOTHIE

Ingredients

  • 2-3 cups tightly packed baby spinach leaves, washed
  • 1-1/2 cups frozen blueberries
  • 1-1/2 cups frozen strawberries (or other frozen fruit of your choice)
  • 1 ripe banana
  • 1/2 cup favorite yogurt (or more if you want it a little sweeter)
  • 1-2 cups 100% grape juice or orange juice* (depending on how thick/sweet you like it)

Preparation

Step 1

Pack 2-3 cups of washed baby spinach into the bottom of the blender (use the glass cup markings on the side of the blender pitcher for convenience). Add the rest of the ingredients in the order listed.
( Your blender will only be about 2/3 full if you make the recipe as written.
I always make a one and a half batch for my big family.)

Blend for 2-3 minutes until smooth and pureed. You may need to push down and stir the frozen berries occasionally.



Thin with added grape juice or water if desired. Serve immediately. Makes 4-5 servings. Enjo
