Everyday Greens Shake

A green protein smoothie is my daily multi-vitamin. This is a superpowered recipe that I wish I could serve to everyone I love each day. Because I can’t physically make that happen, enjoy this recipe. It’s loaded with fiber it’s deep green hue is your daily dose of chlorophyll. It sure doesn’t taste green though.

Notes:

Get some blue or green spirulina powder if you eat an average amount of greens daily. Unless you’re really bulking up on the greens on a regular basis, you could probably use the chlorophyll boost. Humans need green foods - chlorophyll is necessary for vital detoxification processes in the body.

Spirulina also has carotenoids and antioxidants that can help protect cells from damage (disease).

Ingredients:

1-2 cups frozen spinach or kale

1/3 cup frozen blueberries

1 banana

1 tsp. spirulina (see notes)

1 tsp. cacao powder

1 tablespoon of single-ingredient peanut butter

water for desired smoothie consistency

Directions:

Add all ingredients to a blender.

Blend on medium high speed in 30 second intervals, giving a mix between blends.

Add more water for a more liquid consistency.

Serve and enjoy frequently!
