Instructions:
- Add the chopped bananas, frozen strawberries, orange segments, and fresh spinach to your blender.
3. Add Water:
- Pour in 2 cups of water to help blend all the ingredients smoothly.
- Start the blender on a low setting to combine the ingredients.
- Gradually increase the speed and blend until you achieve a smooth, even consistency. This may take about 1-2 minutes depending on the power of your blender.
- If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, add a little more water and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
6. Serve Immediately:

Tips:
- Use ripe bananas for a naturally sweeter smoothie.
- Blend the spinach with water first to ensure it breaks down smoothly before adding the other ingredients.
- Add ice cubes to make the smoothie colder and thicker if desired.
- For extra protein, consider adding a scoop of protein powder or a spoonful of Greek yogurt.
- Replace water with your favorite type of milk (dairy or plant-based) for a creamier texture.
- Experiment with additional ingredients like chia seeds, flax seeds, or a handful of nuts for added nutrients.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding a small amount of honey or agave syrup if necessary.
