Blended spinach

cjdavies82

I don't like vegetables, I have tried to eat spinach hidden away in food and once I bite into it, I cannot stomach it.

I hope I found a solution and want to check.

My breakfast smoothie is made of some berries, whey protein, porridge oats and avocado I stared adding spinach - and I liked it, I couldn't taste it

Now my question, is having it blended in a smoothie any different than eating it, terms of nutritional value?

Zero difference in my opinion. You’re still eating it. Don’t get caught up in the minutia of things. If you’re eating spinach now, and you didn’t used to eat at at all, that’s progress! And progress is good.

Like you I grew up hating the taste of spinach living with a mother that loved and cooked spinach in every imaginable way. God cast upon me a son who was like his grandmother and so spinach came back on the table and I began a taste here and a taste there and somehow became a spinach lover myself. Today, boiled, baked, saute, in whatever or alone, fresh or frozen, my palate finds it a delight.
