4 oz Chobani plain greek yogurt, 1/2 cup unsweetened plain almond milk, 1 scoop chocolate protein powder, half frozen banana, 1 tsp. instant espresso powder, 4-5 ice cubes -- tastes like a thick chocolate/mocha shake!

princeza9

1.5 cups spinach
70 g thawed mango (I get it frozen)
1 banana
1 cup almond milk
if I know I'm going to workout I'll add a scoop of protein powder

or

1 cup spinach
1 cup strawberries
0.5 cup blueberries
0.5 banana
1 cup almond milk
1 scoop protein powder (sometimes)

The second one turns an... interesting... color, but I don't mind it. It smells good to me. The first one is a nice shade of green.

one of my best friends does the same thing every morning.....adds a handful of spinach to each smoothie and he says he can't taste the spinach because it's overpowered by the fruit. Super smart!

personally, I do one little container of yogurt, half a cup of soy/almond milk, half a cup of frozen fruit and half a cup of ice. add more ice if you want it thicker. I definitely want to try spinach in mine though!

Hmmm, spinach in a smoothie, OK. I guess I have to try that, I bet its good, I'm scared though, lol! I will be trying all of these, thanks girls!

When I make mine with spinach, I don't taste it!! Especially if there are bananas or berries, since they have stronger flavors. Actually, all I really taste is the almond milk and the vanilla soy protein powder when I use it.

I have also recently started putting spinach in my smoothies and love it! My current recipe is:

2 handfuls spinach
1 tbs chia seeds
1 tsp wheatgrass powder
1 scoop soy protein powder
1 banana
1 handful frozen raspberries/cherries
250ml soy milk

It is so yummy and super filling - depending on the amount of fruit I put in though it can be a rather unappetising shade of brown but I don't care as I love the flavour

I was afraid to try the spinach as well, but now I add it to all my fruit smoothies! Can't taste it at all, just the fruit. My typical smoothie is:

Banana
1/4 cup tropical fruit juice (either Dole or Trader Joe's - I love the flavor of passion fruit!!)
Vanilla protein powder
ice
A couple handfuls of fresh spinach

Sometimes I add strawberries or other fresh fruit if I've got it.

I used to also add plain Greek yogurt, but decided to save that for evening snacks with fresh berries & honey - I get enough protein in the smoothie from the powder.

200 ml of soy milk + a banana = great smoothie!
