Description
A berry green smoothie with the health benefits of a regular green smoothie, but thanks to the blueberries, it’s still purple! Perfect for first-timers.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 small bananas
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1–2 handfuls of spinach
- 1 cup frozen berries (blueberries, blackberries, etc.)
- 1/2 cup bran cereal such as All Bran original
- 1–2 tablespoons sweetener (sugar, honey, Truvia, agave, etc.)
- ice cubes (optional)
Instructions
- Blend bananas and milk until smooth. Add spinach and blend on a high setting until most of the spinach has been broken down into small pieces. Add the frozen berries and blend until the smoothie mixture is all one color.
- Add the bran and sweetener; blend until desired consistency. Add ice cubes and blend again until smooth (optional – I usually don’t).
Notes
I like to blend it well for several minutes so it’s mostly smooth, but there is still some crunch and texture from the bran.
