Shamrock Smoothie

I literally eat the same thing for breakfast EVERY MORNING.

Lately I have been feeling the nudge to break out of the box a bit.

So when I saw THIS smoothie recipe, I thought – I can do that!

AND it has amazing things like spinach hidden in it that you seriously can not even taste.

I made a few tweaks to what I threw in my blender and thought I’d share it with you not only because it’s delicious, but it’s the perfect color drink for your St. Patrick’s Day festivities. 🙂

Who knows?  Maybe your Happy Buddies will go for it in the name of all things Irish!

Ingredients –

1 banana

6-8 strawberries, frozen

6-8 peaches, frozen

A few handfuls of spinach

Almond milk – I kind of just eyeball this.  Pour in more if you like a thinner smoothie.

Flaxseed

I love these individual-serving-sized flaxseed packets I get at my local Publix.  Talk about ease.

Throw everything into a blender.

And turn that baby on.

Our blender isn’t super powerful (I am trying not to be jealous of all you people who own those Vitamix things), so I have to pick the thing up and shake it around a bit to help it all get chopped up.  The Happy Hubby says it looks like I am wrestling a chicken.

But eventually it will look like this.

And then like this.

And then it will be all gone and in your belly and you will feel like a million bucks because you consumed most of your fruit and veggie servings before the sun is even up!

Don’t they look festive?

Happy Shamrock Smoothie-ing! 🙂
