Author: Ashley

Ingredients

  • 2 ripe, peeled, and speckled bananas*
  • 3 large handfuls baby spinach or to taste
  • 1–2 cups liquid, as needed to blend (I use ½ almond milk and ½ water)
  • 2 scoops (1 serving) pumpkin seed protein powder (or other mild-flavored plant-based protein)
  • 1–2 tablespoons sunflower seed butter or nut/seed butter of choice
  • Optional Add-Ins: vitamin c powder, pure vanilla extract, etc.

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender, and blend on high until smooth and creamy.
  • Pour into a glass.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

*I recommend using frozen bananas, but in a pinch, you can use un-frozen and simply add in a handful of ice cubes to cool the smoothie. Also, if you're not a fan of banana, substitute fresh or frozen mango in its place.
