3 healthy, delicious, green smoothie recipes

Green smoothies are a perfect way, to add your daily greens into your diet. If you are a person that doesn't enjoy the taste of greens and veggies, this is perfect for you, because you can hardly taste them when they are blended into a smoothie :)

1. Fruity, green smoothie

- Frozen bananas
- One apple
- Strawberries
- Blueberries
- Spinach

For the fruity, green smoothie, you can basically add any kind of frozen or non frozen fruits into the blender. The frozen bananas give the smoothie a smooth and thick consistency. Then to get the lovely green colour, just add a cup of spinach, kale or any other green lettuce. To make the smoothie more runny, add a splash of water or milk :)

2. Avocado, spinach, apple smoothie

- 1.5 cups apple juice or water (the juice will make it sweeter, but the water is healthier ;))
- 2 cups of spinach or kale
- 1 chopped up, peeled apple/pear (this will give the smoothie most of the sweetness)
- 0.5 Avocado

Mix theWater/apple juice, spinach, apple and avocado in a blender until the mixture gets a smooth and creamy consistency, and add water to reach the desired consistency.



3. Tropical pineapple, kale smoothie

- 0.5 cup coconut milk
- 2 cups of kale or spinach
- 1.5 cups of pineapple
- 2 Kiwis
- 1 ripe, frozen banana

Combine the coconut milk with spinach/kale, pineapple, kiwi and the frozen banana in a blender and puree until smooth (about 1 minute), adding more water to reach the desired consistency.
