Pineapple Green Smoothie

Smoothies are the best way to get more greens into your diet. I love making Green Smoothies, especially for breakfast. The recipe is simple to prepare. I hope this delicious recipe will be a favorite of yours, too.

In previous years, when I first started making smoothies. They would either be way too sweet, bitter, or leafy (way too much kale, Yuck)! Throughout the years, after many attempts, I’ve learned a thing or two about making smoothies. I enjoy making them and trying new ingredients along the way. Today, I want to share one of my favorites. It consist of basic ingredients and takes less time to prepare.

Greens smoothies are perfect way to incorporate more greens into your diet. There are wonderful benefits to leafy greens, such as spinach, kale, argula, and much more.

  • Vegetables are high in potassium, helps to lower blood pressure
  • They consist of fiber which fills you up quickly
  • high in antioxidants to support a healthy heart

Healthy tip: freeze your vegetables, it’ll last longer. You won’t have to worry about the leafy greens spoiling.


HOW TO MAKE THIS GREEN SMOOTHIE

To make this smoothie, you’ll need a few simple ingredients:

  • Frozen Bananas (I usually buy 2 bunches of bananas. We know, bananas can go bad quickly. I’ll peel all of them, break into chunks and put them in ziplock bags. Place them in the freezer, it even addsa great creamy texture)
  • Frozen Pineapple (high in Vitamin C, which helps build immune system, antoxidants, and calcium. Just to name a few)
  • Spinach (aids in detoxification, rich in proteins and vitamins)
  • Flaxseeds (a great source of fiber, especially to support digestive and anti-inflammatory with omega-3 fatty-acids)
  • Teami Greens Superfoods (in one scoop you can 16 different types of superfood nutrients, meet your daily intake of veggies)
  • Non-dairy beverage (I only use Almond milk, but if you’re allergic to almonds. Any other type of non-dairy product would work: Coconut, Cashew or Hemp milk).
  • Optional: You can use a flavored or unflavored plant-based protein powder. I recommend Orgain Organic Protein. Vanilla protein powder adds a nice flavor to this smoothie.

All you need to make this smoothie is a blender. One that blends well, I personally use Magic Bullet. I enjoy using it for smoothies (and other recipes) to blend “smoothly” as possible without chunks or grit. Add all ingredients into the blender and it works its magic. Easy and simple!

  1. Looks yummy. Although my doctor has led me away from smoothies because she said it was too much sugar for “me” to have at one time (type 2 here), I still love them and every other week I can have about 4 ounces. I really can drink like 32oz. (LOL)
