Ok, so my family and I aren’t really great at eating all of our servings of fruits and vegetables a day. Are most people? It’s really hard to get them all in. That is why I LOVE this smoothie. It’s loaded with tons of good things for you body. It’s super easy to make and you can drink it on the go.
I have been making this smoothie for my daughter and myself for about two years now. I love that is not only tasty, but good for us. It has fruits and spinach as well as protein from Greek Yogurt and Omega 3 oils from the Flax seed. It is great for my growing toddler and definitely benefits me as a runner.
- 1 medium Banana
- 3/4 cup Vanilla Greek Yogurt
- 3/4 cup Orange Juice
- Small handful of Baby Spinach Leaves
- 1/2 frozen Pineapple
- 1/2 frozen Mixed Berries
- 1 tablespoon Flax Seed
- Add all the ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth.

I really struggle making sure my kids (and myself) get enough veggies in. This is a great solution! I’d love to try this with my kiddos! I’m pinning this and putting the ingredients on the grocery list–can’t wait to try it!
