Tropical Green Smoothie

Tropical Green Smoothie

Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh spinach leaves (for that beautiful green color)

  • ½ cup pineapple chunks (fresh or frozen)

  • ½ cup mango cubes (fresh or frozen)

  • 1 ripe banana (sliced)

  • ½ kiwi (peeled and sliced)

  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (plus a little extra to sprinkle on top)

  • 1 cup liquid of your choice (water, coconut water, or almond milk work great)

  • Optional: A few ice cubes if using all fresh fruit

Instructions

  1. Layer the Ingredients: Add the liquid to your blender first (this helps everything blend smoothly). Next, add the spinach, followed by the banana, pineapple, mango, kiwi, and chia seeds.

  2. Blend: Turn the blender on low, then gradually increase to high speed. Blend for about 45 to 60 seconds until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy with no remaining spinach bits.

  3. Adjust Thickness: If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash more liquid. If you prefer it thicker, add a few ice cubes or a couple more frozen fruit chunks and blend again.

  4. Serve: Pour the smoothie into a tall glass. Sprinkle a small pinch of chia seeds on top for a beautiful garnish, just like in the picture. Enjoy immediately!
