5 Reasons Why I Love This Recipe

• Healthy! The best green smoothie is packed with health benefits from just about every single ingredient!
• Taste! Don’t let all the healthy stuff scare you away, it’s all disguised with a sweet fruity flavor!
• Dairy-Free/Vegan Variation! To make this dairy-free/vegan just increase the avocado to a full one and skip the yogurt while also choosing agave over the honey. You can also go this route if you simply just love avocado!
• Quick! Toss the ingredients into the blender and you’re just a minute or two away from an easy breakfast or afternoon snack!
• Makes Two! Most smoothie recipes are catered to a single serving, this one makes enough for you and your spouse, or kids!

Ingredient Notes

Even thought this Spirulina Smoothie has quite a few ingredients, each one is essential for nutrition and flavor!

• Frozen Fruit – Frozen fruit takes away the need for ice cubes! I used frozen banana and pineapple, but frozen mango would also be delicious!
• Baby Spinach – A very nutrient-rich vegetable to pack in vitamin K, vitamin C, folic acid, iron, and calcium.
• Spirulina Powder – Blue-green algae powder is high in protein and a good source of antioxidants. I used this kind! It smells like the sea, but I promise you won’t be able to taste it!
• Almond Milk – You only need a 1/2 cup so you can also use any milk you have on hand.
• Plain Greek Yogurt – Gives this smoothie loads of protein while also helping to make the consistency creamy!
• Collagen Or Protein Powder – Collagen is vital for healthy bones, skin, ligaments, and tendons (I like Vital Proteins). However, if you’re on a journey of building muscle I suggest using your favorite whey protein powder. A vanilla protein powder would add some great flavor to this drink!
• Coconut Oil – A healthy fat that helps your body break down carbs!
• Honey Or Agave – Used to add some sweetness to this smoothie. You could also use maple syrup!
