This smoothie is one I make most often. It’s super easy, doesn’t spike blood sugar levels like others, and keeps me satiated until lunch. The best thing – it weirdly tastes like a fruity cereal.
Ingredients:
1/2 C. Frozen Blueberries, fresh works too
2 Large Handfuls of Fresh Spinach – I’ll tell you my spinach trick below**
1-1/2 C. Milk of Choice
1 scoop of Vanilla Protein Powder of Choice
1 scoop Vital Proteins Collagen Powder
1 Large tbsp. Almond Butter
1 tbsp. MCT Oil
Ice, optional
Directions – Put all the ingredients into a high-powered blender and blend until smooth and creamy. This will make a large smoothie so feel free to split it among 2 to share or store.
**Spinach trick – I buy my spinach from BJ’s, so it’s a ridiculous amount. To get the most bang out of my buck, I make spinach cubes. I blend the spinach with coconut water and freeze into molds. Then I simply grab 2-3 and use them in a smoothie. Since I have these and the frozen blueberries, I don’t add ice, but if you’re using fresh, go for the frozen water cubes.
Can we also talk about how pretty it is? That gorgeous purple makes my heart happy.
Happy smoothie-ing! (That’s a thing, right?) Maybe not… Whatever.
