Spinach & Green Apple Smoothie
Prep time: 5 minutes | Servings: 1
Ingredients
1 Cup Fresh Spinach (packed)
1 Green Apple (cored and diced)
½ Cup Water or Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 Tsp Chia Seeds (optional, for extra fiber and texture)
Instructions
Prepare the Fruit: Wash the green apple thoroughly. Remove the core and dice it into small chunks. You can leave the skin on for maximum fiber.
Combine: Add the spinach, diced apple, and your choice of liquid (water or almond milk) into a high-speed blender.
Add Boosters: If you are using chia seeds, add them to the blender now.
Blend: Start on a low speed and gradually increase to high. Blend for about 45–60 seconds until the mixture is completely smooth and vibrant green.
Serve: Pour into a glass over ice if desired, and enjoy immediately for the best taste and nutrient density.
Top Benefits
High in Fiber: Helps with digestion and keeps you feeling satisfied.
No Added Sugar: Relies on the natural tartness and sweetness of the green apple.
Nutrient Dense: Provides a quick boost of vitamins and minerals from leafy greens.
Pro Tip: If you prefer a colder smoothie, try freezing your apple chunks beforehand or adding a handful of ice cubes before blending.
