I make a really good green smoothie. I blend it in a Nutri Bullet and works really well.
Small handful of spinach
3/4 cup frozen pineapple chunks
1/2 cup frozen mango
1/2 frozen banana
Teaspoon of chia seed..,,they don't taste at all
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
And water to mix....about I cup or more as needed

    Oh I use whatevers in the fruit bowl, always use frozen spinach(still can't get use to kale yet) adding cucumber is nice, really makes it fresh. I usually add some nuts (walnuts or cashew) . I try to keep 50/50 so as not to have too much fruit sugars. I find it keeps me full and less likely to snack.

    My favorite smoothies are kale mixed with pineapple, mango and or papaya, and a little coconut water. Another favorite is kale mixed with blueberries and peaches and 1/2 of a banana for a little sweetness.

    I use about 2-3 cups kale, and 1/2-1 cup each of fruit chopped up. I eat these smoothies pretty regularly and noticed my hair has been growing like a weed!
