Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Rinse the spinach thoroughly under cold water.
- Peel the banana and break it into a few pieces for easier blending.
- Add the 2 cups of spinach to the blender.
- Add the banana pieces on top of the spinach.
- Pour in 1 cup of almond milk.
- Add 1/4 cup of Greek yogurt.
- Add 1 tablespoon of peanut butter.
- Finally, pour in 1 cup of water.
- Secure the lid on the blender.
- Start blending on a low speed, then gradually increase to high.
- Blend until all the ingredients are well combined and the smoothie is smooth and creamy. This should take about 30-60 seconds, depending on the power of your blender.
- If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, you can add more water or almond milk a little at a time and blend again until the desired consistency is reached.
- Pour the smoothie into a glass.
- You can optionally garnish with a sprinkle of chia seeds, a few banana slices, or a drizzle of extra peanut butter on top if you like.
- Drink immediately to enjoy the freshest, most nutritious flavor.
Tips:
- For a thicker smoothie, use frozen banana instead of a fresh one.
- If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup.
- To make it a complete meal, add a scoop of your favorite protein powder.
- Use unsweetened almond milk to keep the sugar content low.
- For an extra boost of flavor, add a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract.
This Peanut Butter Spinach Smoothie is not only a healthy choice but also a deliciously satisfying one. Easy to make and packed with nutrients, it’s the perfect way to start your day or to refresh yourself any time you need a quick pick-me-up.
