A Tasty Green Smoothie Recipe
Packed with nutrients and high protein
If you’re looking for a quick and delicious way to pack in your daily dose of nutrients, then you’re going to love this smoothie. I have this a couple of times a week and it tastes great! It’s an easy way to sneak in those greens, while still enjoying a tasty treat. Whether you’re kickstarting your day or need a mid-afternoon pick-me-up, this is going to fuel you with everything you need.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup spinach or kale: These leafy greens are rich in vitamins A, C, and K, plus iron and calcium, all of which support bone health, immune function, and glowing skin.
- Handful of Strawberries: These are packed with antioxidants, vitamin C, fiber, and folate, making them excellent for boosting immunity, promoting heart health, and supporting skin health. They’re low in calories and high in nutrients, which helps with digestion, reduces inflammation, and can even help manage blood sugar levels. Plus, they’re delicious!
- One scoop of Whey Protein (dark chocolate flavor): This will give you a boost of protein and also a delicious chocolate flavor that goes well with the other ingredients.
- 1 small banana: Bananas are a great source of potassium, which is essential for heart health and balancing electrolytes. They also add natural sweetness.
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds: Chia seeds are packed with omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and protein, helping to stabilize blood sugar levels and keep you satisfied longer.
- 1 tablespoon of peanut butter: This adds a dose of protein and healthy fats, plus it makes the smoothie extra creamy and satisfying.
- 1 cup of Coconut Milk: This serves as the liquid base, providing a smooth texture without adding extra sugar or calories. You can add as much of this as you need depending on how thick you want the smoothie to be.
- 1/2 teaspoon of Honey: It's a natural source of antioxidants, which help fight inflammation and protect against cell damage. Plus, it’s a healthier alternative to refined sugar.
