Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup plain unsweetened almond milk
  • 4 cups loosely packed spinach that's about 2 large handfuls
  • 1 medium avocado peeled and pitted
  • 2 medium apples any kind you like, peel on, cored and quartered (if not using a high-powered blender such as a Vitamix, cut into a rough dice)
  • 1 medium banana cut into chunks and frozen
  • 2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup plus additional to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger or 1/4-inch knob of fresh ginger (if not using a high-power blender, mince the ginger first; use less than 1/2 teaspoon if you'd like a more subtle taste. This smoothie has some zip!)
  • Small handful of ice cubes
  • Optional additions: chia seeds flaxseed, protein powder, almond butter or other nut butter of choice

Instructions
 

  • In the order listed, add the almond milk, spinach, avocado, apples, banana, honey, ginger, and ice to a high-powered blender.
  • Blend until smooth. Taste and adjust sweetness and spices as desired. Enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • If you have any leftovers or do not drink both smoothies right away, you can store the extra in an airtight glass container such as a mason jar in the refrigerator for up to 1 day. You can also halve the recipe if you prefer.
  • If you do not have a high-powered blender, I recommend blending the almond milk, spinach, and avocado first, and then add the apple, banana, honey, and ginger. Once completely smooth, slowly add and blend in the ice.
