In the summer, one of my favorite breakfasts is to make a healthy and refreshing smoothie. They are so versatile and you can make them with whatever you like but this combination is one of my favorites. The only thing I am not a huge fan of with smoothies is that they don’t fill me up enough and I find myself having a second breakfast in an hour. Not this one. This smoothie has protein powder to keep me full for hours. It also has a full serving of veggies to get your day started on the right foot.
Healthy and Refreshing Smoothie : How To Get The Spinach Smooth
So, I started out making smoothies just with fruit, it’s delicious. But I started to feel a little guilty and feel like I should add veggies to it. So I add spinach. But I find that even though I have a pretty high powered blender (it’s a ninja) I end up with little flakes of spinach still floating in my smoothie. The fix was actually quite easy. I just blended the spinach up into a puree with the coconut water first and then added everything else.
