Instructions:
- Ensure your frozen blueberries are measured to 1/2 cup.
- Measure 1/2 cup of fresh or frozen pineapple chunks.
- Measure 2 tablespoons of peanut butter.
- Measure and set aside 1 cup of almond milk.
- Have your scoops of whey protein powder ready.
- Ensure you have 1 cup of fresh spinach leaves.
- Start by adding 1 cup of almond milk into the blender.
- Add 1 cup of spinach to the blender. Blending the spinach with the almond milk first helps to ensure it is well-dispersed.
- Add 1/2 cup of frozen blueberries and 1/2 cup of pineapple chunks to the blender.
- Scoop in 2 tablespoons of peanut butter.
- Finally, add 2 scoops of whey protein powder on top.
- Secure the lid on the blender.
- Blend the mixture on a high setting until smooth and creamy. This should take about 1-2 minutes. Stop and scrape down the sides of the blender if necessary to ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- If your smoothie is too thick, you can add a little more almond milk, a tablespoon at a time, and blend until you reach your desired consistency.
- If you prefer a thicker smoothie, you can add a few ice cubes and blend again until smooth.
- Pour the smoothie into a glass or a to-go cup.
- Optionally, garnish with a few fresh blueberries or a slice of pineapple on the rim.
- This nutrient-packed smoothie is perfect for a post-workout recovery drink, a healthy breakfast, or a midday energy boost!
Tips:
- For an extra creamy texture, freeze the almond milk in ice cube trays and blend it with the other ingredients.
- Add a few ice cubes if you prefer your smoothie extra cold and thick.
- Use a high-quality whey protein powder for the best taste and protein content.
- If you want a bit more sweetness, add a teaspoon of honey or a few slices of banana.
- To save time, prep and freeze individual smoothie packs with all the ingredients except the almond milk.
