Green Smoothie Week

In an attempt to be healthier all around (and because they are delicious) I have been making smoothies almost every morning.  Basic recipe is low calorie vanilla almond milk, spinach and a banana.  After that I'll add OJ, Blueberries, or whatever frozen fruit is available.  The spinach is pretty much undetectable, all the yummy sugars from the fruit take care of that.  Except for the wild green color, you wouldn't know.  Promise.  Everyone at the office has stopped freaking out about the green smoothies for the most part.        



Specifics on the smoothies:  cup of liquid (vanilla almond milk, low call), approx. 1 cup fresh organic spinach (I grab an over-sized handful) , one banana, and approx 1/3-1/2 cup of berries. If I don't add berries I'll add some OJ and cut back on the almond milk
