Power Greens Sunshine Smoothie
Power Greens Sunshine Smoothie
In our farmhouse, smoothies are a regular part of our diet. We just love how many fruits and veggies can be squeezed into a tiny, portable package.
Sometimes we enjoy thick, milkshake-like smoothies and other times we turn to smoothies like this, that offer a thinner, almost juice-like consistency. Packed full of fiber, vitamin C, and polyphenols, this smoothie is easy to drink and brightly flavored.
Servings: 3
Prep Time: 5 minutes | Cook Time: 0 minutes | Total Time: 5 minutes
INGREDIENTS:
2 cups cold, filtered water
2 cups Power Greens Mix (kale, swiss chard, and spinach work too)
1 large orange, peeled and quartered
1 cup frozen mango
1 frozen ripe banana, broken into chunks
INSTRUCTIONS:
Add all ingredients to a blender and blitz until smooth.
NOTES
If you prefer your smoothie a touch sweeter, add a teaspoon or two of raw honey.
If you love smoothies and want to make them regularly, we suggest keeping a stash of ripe, peeled bananas in your freezer at all times. They create a creamy, nutritious, and sweet base for so many delicious smoothies.
If you do not have a high speed blender such as a Vitamix or Blendtec, consider blending the water and greens together first and then add the remaining ingredients and blend again.
