Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups Simple Truth baby spinach
  • 2 cups Simple Truth baby kale
  • 1 cup almond milk COLD
  • 1 cup Tillamook Farm Style Greek Yogurt
  • 1 cup chopped green apple
  • 1 cup sliced frozen banana (slicing before freezing works best)
  • 1 cup diced pineapple
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon honey

Equipment

  • High Powered Blender

Method
 

  1. Start by gathering all your ingredients: 2 cups Simple Truth baby spinach, 2 cups Simple Truth baby kale, 1 cup almond milk, 1 cup Tillamook Farm Style Greek Yogurt, 1 cup chopped green apple, 1 cup sliced frozen banana, 1 cup diced pineapple, 1 tablespoon chia seeds, and 1 tablespoon honey.
  2. Add the baby spinach first into a high-powered blender. This will ensure that it blends smoothly with the other ingredients.
  3. Next, follow with the baby kale. This helps to incorporate them well with the liquids, creating a smoother texture.
  4. Pour in the almond milk. This creamy base is essential; it's what gives your smoothie that luxurious, smooth consistency.
  5. Add the Greek yogurt for a rich creaminess and protein boost.
  6. Now, toss in the chopped green apple and diced pineapple for natural sweetness and vibrant flavor.
  7. Add the sliced frozen banana for sweetness and creaminess. Having it frozen means it will chill your smoothie without watering it down.
  8. Finally, sprinkle in the chia seeds and drizzle honey.
  9. Blend everything on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth. You want a vibrant green color with a creamy texture.
  10. Once blended to perfection, divide your smoothie evenly between four glasses and enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Tip: It’s best to drink your smoothie fresh, but if you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
  • Tip: You can freeze individual portions of this smoothie for a quick breakfast or snack on busy days.
  • Tip: This smoothie pairs wonderfully with breakfast items like oatmeal or whole-grain toast.
  • Tip: Feel free to swap out the banana for other fruits like mango or berries for a different flavor profile.
  • Tip: Consider adding a scoop of protein powder for an extra protein boost.
