A green smoothie is a delicious and nutritious way to start your day, packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. This particular recipe combines the sweetness of tropical fruits with the nutritional powerhouse of leafy greens, all blended to perfection with creamy coconut milk. It's quick to make and perfect for a healthy breakfast or a refreshing snack.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup pineapple
80g
1/2 mango
100g
1/2 cup spinach
16g
1/2 cup kale
33g
1 cup coconut milk
230g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Pineapple: Chop the pineapple into small chunks. If using fresh pineapple, remove the skin and core first.
- Mango: Peel the mango and chop it into small pieces, discarding the pit.
- Spinach and Kale: Rinse the spinach and kale leaves thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean towel or paper towel.

2. Blend the Ingredients:
- Place the chopped pineapple, mango, spinach, and kale into a blender.
- Pour the coconut milk into the blender over the fruits and greens.
3. Blend Until Smooth:
- Secure the lid on the blender.
- Start blending on a low speed and gradually increase to high speed.
- Blend until the mixture is smooth and all the ingredients are fully combined. This should take about 1–2 minutes, depending on your blender's power.
4. Taste and Adjust:
- Taste the smoothie and adjust the consistency if needed. If it's too thick, you can add a little more coconut milk or water.
- If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, you can add a teaspoon of honey or a few drops of stevia.
5. Serve:
- Pour the smoothie into a glass or a travel cup.
- Optionally, garnish with a few fresh pineapple or mango slices or a sprinkle of chia seeds for a decorative touch.
6. Enjoy:
- Sip and enjoy your refreshing and nutrient-packed green smoothie immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Tips:

- Use frozen pineapple and mango for a thicker and colder smoothie.

- If you prefer a thinner consistency, add a bit more coconut milk or water.

- For added protein, consider throwing in a scoop of your favorite protein powder or a serving of Greek yogurt.

- Blend the greens first with the coconut milk before adding the fruit to ensure a smoother texture.

- Feel free to experiment with additional ingredients like flax seeds, chia seeds, or a dash of honey for extra flavor and nutrition.

This green smoothie is not only tasty but also incredibly nutritious. With a blend of tropical fruits and leafy greens, it provides a perfect balance of flavor and health benefits. Enjoy this smoothie as part of your daily routine to boost your energy and keep you feeling great.
