My Green Smoothie Concoction – a Breakfast Staple

green-smoothie-krainsThis Green Smoothie Concoction was inspired by my friend Kevin Rains. He just threw out ingredients on a Facebook post…

One of the healthiest decisions I ever made was to get addicted to green smoothies for breakfast. Do you have a recipe you love? Mine is spinach, banana, almond milk, peanut butter, cinnamon, and ginger and ice …

…and I began to put these ingredients together in a way I’ve enjoyed for breakfast over the last few years.

My wife asked for my recipe today, so I thought I’d post it here and maybe you will enjoy it too.

Green Smoothie Recipe:

1 cup Almond Milk
1 oz. Fresh Ginger (about the size of your thumbnail) – sliced thin
1 Banana
1 tsp. Cinnamon
1.5 TBS. Almond butter or Peanut butter (or more to taste)
1 cup Baby Spring Spinach (one handful or more if you want greens)
1 cup ice

Put ingredients in blender in this order, blend well and enjoy.
If the smoothie is too stiff/thick, add some purified water to thin.
Serves 2-4 smoothies.

 

Thanks Kevin for your inspiration…

Green smoothie breakfasts are changing my life. Yum! And cya 20lbs…
