Chef's Note
“The blueberries in this give it a nice purple hue, but you still get a healthy dose of greens. Add the chia to keep you full a little longer and give you a full day's dose of Omega 3s.”
READY IN:10mins |
SERVES:1 |
YIELD:12 ounces |
UNITS:US |
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 small banana
- 1⁄2 medium grapefruit
- 1⁄2 cup blueberries
- 1 cup spinach leaves
- 1⁄3 cup plain yogurt
- 1⁄2 cup almond milk
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
Directions
- Use frozen fruit if you can. I take spotty bananas, peel them, and put them in a large freezer bag so they're always frozen and ready!
- Break bananas into chunks and put in good blender with rest of ingredients.
- You can add the chia to the blender, or add them after and let the smoothie sit about 15 minutes to "plump up" the seeds. You'll get a kind of "boba tea effect" and they will help keep you full and hydrated longer.
- I also added a small amount of parsley to mine since my herbs are already filming "Herbs Gone Wild" in my garden. Adds a very fresh flavor, but don't add too much. Less is more with parsley until you're sure you like the flavor.
- Can use any kind of berries you'd like.
