The Green Breakfast Smoothie


So, if you are not living a healthy lifestyle already or just starting out you know how challenging it can be to get in all the fruits and veggies + dairy everyday. Although, this doesn't look yummy to most it has to be one of the best tasting smoothies I have found. Primarily it tastes like a banana milk shake.

Here is the recipe:

1/2 of a frozen banana
1/2 cup of frozen fruit (unsweetened)
1/2 cup of low fat vanilla yogurt
1/2 cup sweetened vanilla almond milk
1 Tablespoon of Honey
1 cup of spinach- hence the green color

Total Calories: 287
2 servings of fruit + veggies for the day
1 serving of dairy

Enjoy!
