Green smoothies have become my new obsession lately. I have been trying to drink one a day as they are filling and super nutritious. Now this green smoothie includes a new superfood I have been trying out which is spirulina... and I have been loving this new addition to my diet.
Spirulina is one mighty super food. It contains all essential amino acids, a wealth of antioxidants and immune boosting nutrients. It is fat free and is more the 60% protein based. I love adding this super powder to my smoothies as it gives an abundance of nutrients in a single teaspoon. This smoothie specifically is loaded with clean, healthy ingredients that are sure to provide you with great health and a tasty smoothie to enjoy! Don't worry, this smoothie may look like a salad in a jar but it tastes great... you can't even taste the green.
Ingredients:
1-2 tbsp. vanilla greek yogurt
1/2 a banana
approx. a handful of frozen mango
approx. 1 cup spinach
1/3 cup 100% fruit juice ( I used a mango/ orange juice but any tropical flavoured juice will work)
approx. 1/3 cup water
1 tsp. spirulina powder
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 cup of ice
