The Poolside Green Smoothie

Sun-soaked mornings by the pool in AZ call for a vibrant start, and what better way than with a nourishing green smoothie?

This blend, inspired by the fresh vibes of Arizona, is your ticket to a healthful day. Dive into a glass full of nutrients from apples, spinach, and bananas. It's a splash of goodness in every sip!

Your Go-To Green Smoothie Recipe: Having sipped on various smoothie blends over the years, this recipe stands out as my poolside favorite. It's nutrient-rich, filling, and tastes so delightful that you'll eagerly hop out of bed, anticipating this blend!

Ingredients:

  • Milk: Opt for cashew, oat, or almond milk for creamy goodness. But, any milk of your choice will do!

  • Veggies: Spinach, the affordable superfood, is my pick.

  • Fruits: A mix of apple, avocado, and banana keeps it fresh and tasty.

Whip Up Your Poolside Blend:

  1. Pop all ingredients into a high-powered blender.

  2. Blend till it achieves a smooth, creamy consistency (around 30 seconds).

Smoothie Tips for Those Arizona Vibes:

  • Vary your greens: Think kale, chard, or even romaine for a change.

  • Stick to a healthy base: Water or milk is ideal. Let's keep additional sugars at bay.

  • Fruit variations: Play with fruits. Freeze options like strawberries, mangos, or pineapple.

  • Add healthy fats: It’s not just for taste! Fats aid nutrient absorption. Toss in nuts, seeds, or a slice of avocado.

  • Texture adjustments: Want it thicker? Add more avocado. For a lighter feel, replace milk with water.

  • Supercharge it: Add in spices or superfoods like cinnamon, ginger, maca powder, or bee pollen.
