How to Add More Greens to Your Diet: Tropical Non Dairy Smoothie

Looking for a quick and healthy way to increase your green intake? I make this non-dairy smoothie daily for myself and Connor. He loves it, and so do I. It’s a great way to get your greens in plus it doesn’t contain dairy which is a nice change. Here's what you'll need:

What You’ll Need

• 1 cup of spinach. Baby kale is also a great alternative.

• 1 cup of water or coconut water

• 1/2 cup of frozen pineapple

• 1/2 cup of frozen mango

• 1/2 ripe banana

• *optional, 1 tablespoon chia seeds

Instructions

Prepare in minutes with these simple steps:

• In a blender, combine the spinach and water. Blend on high speed until the spinach is well pureed, and the mixture becomes smooth.

• Add the frozen pineapple, frozen mango, and ripe banana to the blender. These tropical fruits not only enhance the flavor but also contribute to the smooth texture of the smoothie.

• Blend all the ingredients together until you achieve a creamy consistency. If desired, adjust the thickness by adding a little more water to suit your taste preferences.

  Benefits of the Tropical Non-Dairy Smoothie:

• This smoothie is packed full of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. This green powerhouse promotes digestion, supports the immune system, and strengthens bones (kale especially aids in calcium absorption.) 

• Vitamins and Fiber: The combination of pineapple, mango, and banana in this recipe delivers a potent dose of essential vitamins and dietary fiber. 

• Stay Hydrated: With its high water content, this smoothie helps keep you hydrated, especially during warm weather or after a workout. 
  
  Like I said, Connor drinks this at least once a day if not more. I hope you and your family enjoy this recipe as much as we do!
