I love smoothies.\u00a0 Growing up, I can vividly remember being resentful over my mother feeding me blended fruits and veggies instead of ‘normal’ snacks.\u00a0 Once I realized that a smoothie was literally a blank canvas in a blender, that’s when my dislike faded, appreciation grew and soon became a bit of an obsession.\u00a0 There have been days where I’ve had a different smoothie for every meal, that’s how deep this love runs.\u00a0 I created this recipe one day when I woke up to an immediate feeling of dread and anxiety. After spending some time cleaning the kitchen while venting to my voice memos (my hands-free solution to journaling), I blended together a few of my favorite things and created what I like to call a ‘<\/span>Bright Eyes<\/span><\/span>‘ Green Smoothie.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Ingredients<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n

1\/2 banana\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

1\/<\/span>3 cup (about 3<\/span>) strawberries<\/span><\/p>\r\n

1\/<\/span>2 cup pineapple<\/span><\/p>\r\n

1 handful spinach<\/span><\/p>\r\n

1 cup coconut <\/span>milk or coconut water<\/span><\/p>\r\n

1\/2 teaspoon turmeric (optional)<\/span><\/p>\r\n

1 tablespoon oats (optional)<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Process<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n

    \r\n
  1. Place all desired ingredients in your blender.<\/span><\/li>\r\n
  2. Blend to combine.<\/span><\/li>\r\n
  3. Taste. Adjust as needed.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n

    *TIPS*:<\/span><\/p>\r\n

    1. Freeze your bananas ahead of time! They help keep the smoothie cold in place of ice cubes and add a soft-serve-like creaminess.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

    I thought this was heaven! It’s creamy from the frozen banana, refreshing with the coconut <\/span>milk, and tangy from the pineapple and strawberries.\u00a0 I added the oats<\/span> and turmeric to make it more suited to my palate that day.\u00a0 The oats<\/span> bulked it up and kept me full when I had a lot of errands to run. The turmeric added antioxidants and helped to promote detoxification for that inner glow. All in all, delicious stuff \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\r\n

    I hope you give this smoothie a taste and tell me what you think!<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n
