Sneaky Green Smoothies

sneaky green smoothies

We can't all eat spinach from the can like Popeye but we can all benefit from the nutrients that super foods like spinach provide to keep us strong and healthy. Spinach and other leafy greens are dense with vitamins and minerals that can help everything from our skin to our bones.

Since it can be difficult to make ourselves - or our kids - drink things that look like vegetables, here are three recipes with greens that aren't-so-green.

Sneaky Green Smoothies

Skinny Peach Berry Smoothie

Ingredients

1 cup unsweetened almond milk
½ banana
½ cup fresh spinach
½ cup fresh kale, trimmed
1 medium fresh peach, halved and pitted
1 cup frozen mixed berries
1½ cups ice cubes
1 tsp stevia (or sweetener of your choice)

Berry Banana Green Smoothie

Ingredients

1 banana
1½ cups spinach
1 cup frozen blueberries

Sneaky Green Smoothies

Chocolate Covered Strawberry Smoothie

Ingredients

8 fl oz unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
½ cup fresh spinach
1 tsp chia seeds
1 tbsp honey (or sweetener of choice, to taste)
6 whole strawberries
1 cup ice cubes

    Hi LeeAnn,
    Unfortunately, we don’t have any smoothie recipes that use both avocado and vanilla. Thanks for the idea, this is something we’ll look into.


  • Kelli Farley Sep 16, 2015

    Hi Sheela,
    Bananas are used for the health benefits, but also because they give smoothies a creamier texture. You can either leave the banana out, or use an avocado or yogurt to get the same creamy texture. As for the tree nuts, we suggest that you just leave those out of the recipe all together.

    Here’s some smoothie recipes that have no bananas or tree nuts:
    Acai Berry Smoothie
    Basic Green Smoothie
    Berried Up to Here
    Peach Yogurt Cooler

    Lately I have been adding organic kiwifruit and a small piece of fresh ginger root to our morning green drink. Very refreshing.

    Do you have a recipe for an avocado/vanilla recipe


  • KATHY Sep 15, 2015

    I use my Blendtec everyday, but not always for food! I make laundry soap too, blending the dry ingredients to a fine powder using the wildside jar.
