The simplest smoothie that I love is 1/4 pineapple and handful of spinach. (May add water if needed.) YUMMMM!!!!

The following is a smoothie recipe that I got rom my Naturopathic doc.

High Protein Smoothie
2 large Fuji apples, juice of
1 banana, peeled
5-6 large strawberries
1/2 cup of blueberries
¼ of a pineapple (including ¼ of the stem)
1/2 handful of almonds
1/2 handful of cashews
¼ avocado meat
2-3 pitted dates
2 handfuls of parsley or 4-5 leaves of Romaine or 2 leaves of Kale
1 TBS of coconut oil (optional)
1-2 cups of water, depending on how thick you like you smoothie
Blend away and drink up! YUMMMM!!!

Thumbs up on the pineapple and spinach! I like that with curly kale, too...

A teaspoon of spirulina is also nice, adds a mellow vibe to the day.

Half a pineapple (or a whole one if it's small),
about 5 heads of baby bok choy (or a bunch of spinach or water spinach)
a knob of fresh ginger,
a sprinkle of cinnamon.

If I only have a bit of pineapple left but I want to make a bigger batch of smoothie then I chuck in a couple Fuji apples.

This is easy and always makes me happy. I'm made some pretty ho-hum smoothies lately that just taste like banana but this is never a disappointment...if you like a little "grassy" taste to your smoothie.

Blueberries, pineapple, and spinach is quite delectable! Another favorite is oranges, celery, and swiss chard.
