Notes
Use frozen fruit for a thick, creamy smoothie that has the most flavor. If you don’t have frozen fruit, add some ice (about 1/2 -1 cup) to help make the smoothie cold, refreshing and thick. The ice can water down the flavor, so use less milk if you are adding ice.
Freeze fruit in advance – if you think of it the night before, you can freeze fresh fruit for smoothies the next day. Check out all my tips and tricks on how to freeze fruit for smoothies. Freezing fruit that is going bad or won’t be enjoyed before it spoils is a great way to ensure it doesn’t go to waste.

Add more protein – make your smoothies even more filling by adding protein (with protein powder, hemp hearts, collagen, etc.) or using Greek yogurt in this recipe.
Make it dairy free and vegan – use dairy free milk and a dairy free based yogurt (like coconut yogurt, almond milk yogurt or cashew yogurt).
Add some sweetness if needed – this spinach blueberry banana smoothie is naturally sweetened from the bananas. If your banana isn’t super ripe, you may need to add just a little honey, maple syrup, or a date or two (pitted) to get your desired taste.
