morning smoothie



it's no secret that i love my fruits and vegetables.  i always manage to start my day off with a 100% fruit and veggie smoothie (and if i don't, watch out!). i usually throw whatever i manage to find in it, but it's always pretty much the same: citrus, more citrus, spinach, and maybe a little citrus (:

so i thought i'd share with you my morning smoothie- the guy i drink 7 days a week, sometimes twice a day!

ingredients

-2 bananas (yes, two- you want to be full after this, right?)
- several large strawberries (i use about 8 or so)
-1 C pineapple, chopped
-1 C mango, chopped
- 2 HUGE handfuls of spinach (handful isn't even accurate- use a lot)
-8oz fresh squeezed OJ (i get mine from trader joes) or you could use two peeled oranges
-ice

directions
1. throw all ingredients into a blender.
2. blend until smooth
3. pour into a glass or a mason jar
4. enjoy (:

Ok, but does it taste spinachy? That's my thing, I always want to try new smoothies, but then I see they call for spinach and I'm just not too keen on that yet.

Yummy!!! I've tried spinach before but only with banana and honey. Will try to add mango and pineapple next time.

It looks delicious unblended lol. I also love how you added a mason jar as an option. For some reason I just think changing up the glass/mug/or dish really makes the meal more "fun". Kinda strange but it's the little things right?!
