    I add just a very small amount of orange juice (maybe 8oz)
    two huge handfuls of spinach ( i get organic baby spinach)
    1 mango
    1 or 2 bananas
    combine all of that in a bender. it makes 2 servings. and it's delicious!

    You can also use like 8 large strawberries and 2 bananas, maybe add some pineapple with orange juice and spinach and that's delicious too!

    My favourite green smoothie:

    1/2 cup almond milk
    1/2 cup water
    1 small frozen banana
    1 kiwi fruit
    1-2 cups frozen spinach
    + cinnamon

    So good! :)

    A few days ago there was another post like this and someone recommended the recipes at www.fullmeasureof happiness.com... I've tried almost all of them - and they are awesome. My favorites are the Cafe Latte & Banana Bread green monsters. Good luck!

    How do they make their Green Smoothies so GREEN! I've never had one green -- more like beige or darker.
