Mandie's Super Healthy Smoothie

Submitted by Mandie

"This smoothie recipe came out of desperation to find something quick and healthy to feed my children in the morning. We leave the house at 6am and I didn't want to wake them up any earlier than I needed to. All four of my children eat breakfast either at school or at the day care but we needed something to tide them over until then."

 

• Ready In: 10mins
• Ingredients: 9
• Yields: 36 ounces
• Serves: 4-6

ingredients

• 1 cup soymilk
• 2 cups baby spinach leaves
• 1 cup grape tomatoes
• 2 bananas
• 1 cup frozen strawberries
• 1 cup crushed pineapple
• 2 tablespoons frozen concentrated orange juice
• 1 tablespoon wheat germ
• 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds

directions

1. Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth.
2. I usually blend the soy milk, spinach, and tomatoes together first so that the spinach is completely liquified.
3. Mix and match ingredients. We usually use what ever kind of fruit we can find on sale. Strawberries and bananas are a staple, but I have been know to add blueberries, apples, starfruit, mangoes, pureed pumpkin, and even peanut butter.
