    I try to find protein with not a lot of flavor if I'm doing it that way or I go with a vanilla, although I haven't tried vanilla with spinach and I will experiment to see if it works lol. I would say try making a smoothie without it since most I've found have flavors. I usually have spinach, honey, oatmeal, aloe vera (optional lol), apple, and water

    I love spinach omelettes . you do have to wilt the spinach a bit first otherwise you'll get to much water in the omelette.

    But you are meaning in protein drinks aren't you.

    You need some fruit in there to hide the gross taste of the greens. I usually do frozen berries with a banana. The banana really makes it creamy. Give that a try.

    You need to add a frozen banana in there..I can't get down a spinach shake without it.

    Also, I'd stay away from mixing greens together, I usually stick with one at a time.

    I also drink my protein shakes with unsweetened almond milk, tastes like a milkshake.

    2 scoops vanilla whey
    1 cup almond milk
    Crap ton of spinach
    Frozen banana
    1 cup of ice


    Yum
