Pineapple Mango Green Smoothie


It’s time to announce that the green-smoothies fad has officially made its way to my blog. If you haven’t made a green smoothie before, don’t worry, the Pineapple Mango Green Smoothie may have a strange colour but I promise it tastes delicious.

I got this recipe from CafĂ© Zupas, which like most smoothies has you blend all the ingredients together at once. My first green smoothie wasn’t a good one. The leafy chunks overpowered the fruity flavor, not necessarily the experience I wanted.

Nevertheless, when making this smoothie, I blended the spinach and almond milk together before adding the fruit. This helps with increasing the smoothness in this green drink.

Together, mango and pineapple give an irresistible tropical taste and contain more than the right amount of Vitamin C people need. These fruits will also provide you with dietary fiber and Vitamin A.

The spinach is what makes this smoothie green; it is full of health benefits and a main part of why this smoothie contains a variety of essential nutrients. It is perfect for cardiovascular health, antioxidant health, and even stress relief.

I love simplegreensmoothies.com, they have tons of valuable tips and recipes to making awesome green smoothies. If you need more help on how to make the perfect green smoothie, click here for five tips to get you started.
