Piña Colada Green Smoothie

January 05, 2015

I know that the idea of a green smoothie really turns some people off, but I promise you- you can’t taste the spinach at all! It does have a bright green color, but the flavor of the fruit really overpowers everything else. If you haven’t tried a green smoothie, this is a good one to start with! Also, if you have a favorite green smoothie combo, I would love to hear what it is in the comments below!

1 cup pineapple, fresh or frozen, cut into chunks
3 tablespoons coconut flakes, unsweetened OR 1 tablespoon coconut flakes, sweetened
1 cup skim milk (or coconut milk or water is awesome in this!)
dash of coconut extract
1 cup fresh baby spinach or kale
1 large banana, sliced and frozen

Place all the ingredients inside blender. Cover and blend until smooth, stopping frequently to push down anything stuck to the sides (especially those with a lower-power blender). Pour into glass and enjoy....
