I LOVE green smoothies! I seriously can't get enough... And that's not a bad thing 😉
Every week I make an elaborate meal plan so I stay on track with my healthy lifestyle. I usually stick to my breakfasts and dinners but for lunches I usually plan to eat some sort of salad. I'm ok with that most of the time because I really like salads. But sometimes I'd rather drink my salad instead! That's why I love green smoothies! You get all those greens in without tasting them!
Spinach, frozen banana, an orange, chia seeds,and coconut water are blended on high to create a delicious green smoothie.
You Need:
- 1 can of unsweetened coconut water
- 1 sliced frozen banana
- 1 peeled orange
- 1 tbs chia seeds
- 2 cups of spinach
- 1 packet of sweetener
Directions:
Add all ingredients in a blender
Blend on high and slurp!

Ok, I definitely need to get on board with the green smoothie. I've still never tried one but yours looks so good.

I still haven't made a green smoothie or tried chia seeds! I need to get on this bandwagon!

I have yet to try green juice - I think I need to give green juice a shot with this recipe 🙂

Ooh smoothies! I really need to get into the habit. My son just asked me to cook more healthy. Maybe I will introduce him to chia seeds. He asked for quinoa which was surprising. I don't think he knows people eat chia. 🙂
