That shake sounds really good and healthy, I might try it myself!

1/2 cup whatever kind of liquid you want, I use unsweetened original almond milk, but there are a ton of different options based on your taste or calorie goals

1/2 cup 0% Vanilla Greek yogurt, again, a ton of choices based on your tastes. I use greek because its pretty much superior to regular yogurt in every way.

1/2 cup frozen fruit. This is where wal mart comes in super handy, I use great value frozen fruit, its cheap so you can buy a couple different kinds and mix and match at your own leisure.

Half a banana

A TBSP or two of hemp hearts, other people use flax or whatever else they can think of.

and then I fill the rest of my blender with spinach, which I assume works out to about half a cup packed, maybe more. I have a single serve hamilton beach blender. You could use kale or some other green leafy too.


You don't really need a recipe, just go on real food that tastes good, you shouldn't need to add sugar or anything, and I can never taste the spinach.


I don't use protein powder in mine, but it would just be one or two scoops, depending on what the serving size is.

My favorite, (especially since I usually hate eating vegetables), is

1/2 cup skim milk
1 scoop vanilla protein
1/4 tsp peppermint extract
2 to 3 cups spinach. (or whatever will fit in your blender.)
1/2 frozen banana

Tastes like mint ice cream. If you freeze your spinach, or use a whole frozen banana, it will make it thick enough to eat like ice cream.

8 oz Vanilla almond milk
2 scoops of Visalus
cup of ice
Half a packet of Starbucks V iced drink mix

Its tastes exactly like a Starbucks Blended mocha but is good for you YUM!

I usually have the protein powder with one piece of fruit, milk, almond milk and a bit of milo (for the extra iron) for breakfast.
Yummy!
