Green Monster Smoothie

I promise, this doesn't taste as bad/weird as it sounds. I promise. And I hope you trust me.

My favorite color is green, but I'll be the first to tell you that I was skeptical of this recipe or idea. It sounds a little too good to be true. Spinach in a smoothie, giving you all of the nutrition and vitamins but no spinach flavor? Get real. No way.

It was real. And I'm obsessed. I think I've made these at least 5 or 6 times in the past few weeks.

Sorry there's no ingredient picture! You'll need a chopped frozen banana (freeze it after you chop it up!), 1/2 c fat free vanilla yogurt (you could be extra healthy and go Greek here, I'm just not that good), 1 c. milk (I use fat free, you could be extra extra good and use soy or almond, but us simple folk don't have that lying around the house), 1 large spoonful of peanut butter, 1/4 c. frozen raspberries (optional), and a large handful of your leafy green friend, spinach.

This recipe is very, very difficult. And by very difficult, I mean it's so easy you almost don't have to think. Just push a button,

Put banana in blender.

Put berries in blender.

Put large spoonful of peanut butter in blender. LARGE.

Yogurt decides to join.

Along with the milk.

Now fill the blender to the top with your leafy friend. Do not fear the spinach.

Start blending. You may have to stop after a minute and stir to get the spinach sucked in.

Blend until smoooooth.

Drink it. Love it. Take it to school with you and scare your students. Enjoy your life! You'll like the smoothie taste (it's mostly banana, peanut butter, and berry) and you'll like feeling healthy even better!
