Energy Charged Green Smoothie

Banana Spinach Super Boost Smoothie Recipe

Green Banana Spinach Super Smoothie

Super Charged Ingredients

6 Strawberries
1 Banana
150 ml Almond Milk
1 tbsp Greek Yogurt
Good Handful Spinach
1 Tsp Coconut Oil



Health Benefits 

  • Straw berries provide a punch of Vitamin C which is vital in collagen production for healthy, younger looking skin as well as boosting your immune system. 
  • Bananas provide both fiber as well as high levels of potassium.   The potassium found in bananas neutralizes any excess sodium in the body which then allows for healthy amounts of calcium to remain to be used for  strengthening your bones. 
  • Almond Milk is a great alternative to cows milk for smoothies and is a source of calcium 
  • Greek Yogurt packs a punch of protein over regular yogurt and so keeps you fuller for longer. Either type is beneficial to a health diet. 
  • Spinach is an Awesome Power Superfood. Low in calories, packed with nutrients such as Vit A and K along with magnesium, protein and calcium. Blend it , Eat it and cook it every day!
  • Coconut Oil rates right up there with the best of the best. It helps in weight loss, improves your  metabolism and reduces fatigue to name a few benefits. Maybe I should put some more in the smoothie but the taste is just as powerful as the benefits, so it's up to you


Blend your Green Smoothie and Enjoy a Productive Day

What do you put in your power smoothies?
