Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 2 frozen bananas, peeled and chopped
  • 1 scoop protein powder of choice
  • 1 and ½ cups fresh spinach
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tbsp hemp seeds
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)

Instructions

  1. Add Ingredients: Place the frozen bananas, protein powder, fresh spinach, chia seeds, hemp seeds, lemon juice, and almond milk into a blender.
  2. Blend: Blend all ingredients together on high speed until smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no chunks remaining.
  3. Serve: Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy immediately for the best fresh flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Use frozen bananas to achieve a thick, chilled texture without adding ice.
  • You can substitute almond milk with any milk of choice such as oat, soy, or dairy milk.
  • Add more almond milk if you prefer a thinner consistency.
  • For an extra boost, consider adding a handful of ice cubes before blending.
  • The protein powder type can be tailored to dietary needs — whey, plant-based, or collagen protein are good options.
