Descriptions
This easy Green Breakfast Smoothie comes together in just 5 minutes, making it perfect for busy mornings. Fresh spinach blends with ripe banana and avocado for a creamy texture, while Greek yogurt adds protein and almond milk keeps the smoothie light and smooth.
It’s a simple grab-and-go breakfast that can also be customized with protein powder, berries, pineapple, or your favorite nut butter.
Directions
Add fresh spinach to a high-speed blender. Blending the greens first helps create a smoother texture.
Add the banana and avocado to the blender. A frozen banana works especially well for a cold and creamy smoothie.
Add Greek yogurt, almond milk, chia seeds, honey, lemon juice, and ice.
Blend on high for 30–60 seconds, or until the smoothie is creamy and completely smooth.
If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more almond milk and blend again.
Pour the smoothie into two glasses and serve immediately. Add a sprinkle of chia seeds on top if desired.
Note's
- Use a frozen banana for a thicker, colder smoothie.
- Baby spinach has a mild flavor and blends easily.
- You can use oat milk, soy milk, or regular milk instead of almond milk.
- Add protein powder if you want a higher-protein breakfast.
- For a dairy-free version, use dairy-free yogurt.
- Add frozen pineapple or mango for a tropical flavor.
- This smoothie is best enjoyed immediately after blending.
