A green smoothie recipe that actually tastes good? Yep. If you're new or resistant to drinking things like this, this is the perfect green smoothie to break you in. It's loaded with healthy greens and three kinds of vegetables, and I swear it doesn't taste like compost.

📝 Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup almond milk
  • 4 stalks celery, cut into thirds
  • 1/2 of an English cucumber, cut into thirds
  • 2 large handfuls of fresh greens (spinach, kale, or chard)
  • 1/2 of an apple (preferably tart)
  • 1/4 of an orange, peeled
  • 1 Tablespoon of coconut oil
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen pineapple chunks

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Put everything in the blender in the order listed. Blend until smooth! If you don't have a power blender (like a Blendtec/Vita-mix), then add more almond milk if it gets stuck. Taste and add a few more pineapple chunks if you'd like it sweeter.
  2. 2Serves two or one as a meal.
  3. 3Adaptation: Once I used half of a pear instead of apple, lime instead of orange, and added an inch of fresh grated ginger. Loved it, too!
