Introduction

Strange but surprisingly good . . . my new favorite breakfast. Strange but surprisingly good . . . my new favorite breakfast.
Number of Servings: 1

Ingredients

    1 banana
    1 handful baby spinach
    1 cup frozen blueberries
    1 tsp coconut oil
    1 tbsp honey (or to taste)
    2 tbsp cocoa powder
    2 cups water

Directions

Put all this into a blender and blend for 20 seconds or so. Pour into a very tall glass with a straw and enjoy. Makes 1 big 20 oz. serving.

My first green smoothie experiment, though many green smoothies have lots of these ingredients. Hope you like it as much as I do. Have fun creating your own. By the way, it looks like dark chocolate in a glass, not so much blue green. :)

tip: When making green smoothies, rinse the blender out immediately because it's really hard to clean if you let it sit. I hear you saying yes, thanks captain obvious.

    This sounds really good. I second the idea of rinsing the blender immediately, I was rushed yesterday and didn't do it and I had some serious scrubbing to do last night! - 9/29/09
