Easy Vegan Spinach Smoothie


Yields about 3.5 cups

Making green smoothies is one of the easiest – and healthiest – ways to use baby spinach. In this beautiful green vegan smoothie, nutrient-packed baby spinach is mixed with an organic Granny Smith apple and a ripe banana which add sweetness and texture to the blend. And, as you will be using a frozen banana instead of a fresh one, you won't have to add ice cubes or crushed ice!

Vegan Spinach Smoothie

Ingredients

  • 1 organic Granny Smith apple, rinsed
  • 1 ripe banana, peeled, sliced and frozen
  • 2 cups baby spinach, rinsed
  • 1 cup (or more) cold water

Directions

  • Break the apple into large chunks, and place the chunks in a high-powered blender, together with the rest of the ingredients. Blend thoroughly.
  • Check the consistency. If the smoothie is too thick to your liking, add a bit more water, and blend again.
