Scale

Green Detox Smoothie Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
  • 1 medium ripe banana
  • 1 medium apple, cored and chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 cup water (adjust for desired consistency)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Wash the fresh spinach leaves thoroughly and core and chop the apple into smaller pieces to facilitate blending.
  2. Add to Blender: Place the spinach, banana, chopped apple, and lemon juice into your blender. Pour in 1 cup of water to start.
  3. Blend Smooth: Blend all ingredients on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, gradually add more water and blend again to reach your preferred consistency.
  4. Serve Immediately: Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy promptly to savor the fresh flavors and retain maximum nutrients.

Notes

  • This smoothie is best consumed fresh as it may oxidize and lose its vibrant color.
  • Adjust water quantity to achieve your preferred thickness.
  • You can substitute lemon juice with lime juice for a slightly different citrus flavor.
  • For added protein, consider adding a scoop of your favorite plant-based or whey protein powder.
  • To make it colder, use frozen banana or chill the ingredients beforehand.
