Ingredients
  

Base Liquid (Choose 1)
  • 1 cup Water or Unsweetened Almond Milk For hydration and lower calories
  • 1 cup Coconut Water For electrolytes
Greens (Choose 1-2 handfuls)
  • 2 handfuls Spinach Mild flavor, high in iron
  • 1 handful Kale Remove thick stems
Fruit (Choose 1 cup, frozen preferred)
  • 1 cup Frozen Berries (mixed) Antioxidants for skin health
  • 1/2 cup Frozen Banana slices For creaminess and potassium
Protein & Healthy Fats (Choose 1-2)
  • 1 scoop Protein Powder (Vanilla or Unflavored) For muscle recovery
  • 1 tablespoon Chia Seeds or Flax Seeds Fiber and Omega-3s
  • 1 tablespoon Nut Butter (Almond or Peanut) Healthy fats for sustained energy
Boosters (Optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Turmeric powder Anti-inflammatory support
  • 1 inch piece Fresh Ginger Peel before adding

Equipment

  • blender

Method
 

  1. Add the liquid base (water or milk) to your blender first. This helps the blades move freely.
  2. Add your greens next. Blend briefly until the greens are mostly broken down into the liquid. This prevents leafy chunks in the final smoothie.
  3. Add the fruit, protein powder, and any seeds or nut butter.
  4. Add any optional boosters like turmeric or ginger.
  5. Secure the lid and blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides once.
  6. Pour into a glass and drink immediately for the best texture and nutrient absorption.

Notes

When you are starting out, use a 2:1 ratio of fruit to greens to keep the flavor appealing. As you get used to the taste, gradually increase the amount of greens you add. Experimenting with different frozen fruits, like mango or pineapple, can change the texture and flavor profile significantly.
