Bright Green Smoothie

My friend Catherine (of Weelicious) is a smoothie QUEEN! I love tuning in to see what she’s putting into her children’s smoothies every morning when she shares her #smoothieproject stories on Instagram.  Catherine’s latest book, Smoothie Project recently hit the shelves and this Bright Green Smoothie is the first of maaaaany smoothies I cannot wait to try.  I’ve got my sights set on both the Mocha Almond and the Halva smoothies next. 

This color makes me so happy.

Here’s what’s in it! 

I tested the recipe in this High-Speed Philips Blender .  I’m giving one away! 

Stay tuned!

Orange juice goes in. I didn’t have a frozen banana so I used fresh.

Either one is fine. 

That green is something else, huh?

Such a perfect way to start the morning.

It tastes tropical and citrusy! You would never guess there’s spinach in there, other than the color.

Now I just need to make sure I have spinach on hand. 

Oh! Hey! I’m giving away this Philips High-Speed Power Blender ($600 value) to a lucky reader on my Instagram this Friday, February 14th. 

To win, go to my Instagram account- @shutterbean  and see how to enter!  Post will go up 9am PST!
