    I don't make a whole lot of smoothies, especially green ones. I really do enjoy eating veggies. But if you don't love eating your greens, a smoothie can be a great option to help you get those super nutritious dark leafy greens into your daily routine!

    Why You'll Love This Green Smoothie

    Some green smoothies taste like grass. That's not what I was going for here. I love this pineapple kiwi green smoothie because it tastes delicious and tropical, but still loaded with nutrition. It's got you covered on the basics - fiber, protein, and healthy fat, as well as tons of vitamins and minerals - vitamin C, vitamin A, potassium, folate, and iron to name a few. And all that produce provides antioxidant power, too! A smoothie bowl with lots of toppings is fun, but you can also pour it in a glass for convenience.

    The Ingredients

    • Banana - Adds tons of potassium and thickening power.
    • Kiwi - Full of vitamin C! The skins have tons of fiber, so feel free to toss the kiwi in unpeeled if you have a high speed blender.
    • Pineapple - Provides natural sweetness, plus vitamin C, manganese and antioxidants. I love using frozen pineapple for a thicker, more frosty smoothie. Fresh works well too.
    • Spinach - With iron, folate, calcium, and vitamins A, C, and K, spinach is the OG superfood. It blends in seamlessly here.
    • Avocado - For satisfying healthy fat and a creamy texture, plus folate and fiber!
    • Collagen - I'm not big on protein powders, but this smoothie doesn't have a protein base like yogurt, so I added collagen peptide powder (You can read more about collagen here). If you want to make your smoothie vegan, use your favorite plant-based protein powder and nondairy milk.
    • Milk - Use your favorite kind of milk. I like regular cow's milk for protein. If you're using a plant-based milk, I recommend soy milk or one with similar protein content.

    How To Make It

    1. Add everything to a blender and blend until smooth. I prefer a high speed blender like a Vitamix.
    2. If you have a little time and like to decorate your smoothie, pour into a bowl and top with your favorite toppings! I used coconut, banana, and kiwi here.
    3. If you prefer your smoothie to go, simply pour in a glass and sip on your commute (or while doing mom things!).

    • Method: no cook
    • Cuisine: American

    Ingredients

    Scale
    • ½ medium banana
    • 2 kiwi
    • ¾ cup frozen pineapple

    • 1-2 scoops collagen powder or your favorite protein powder (I use Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides.)

    Notes

    • Did you know that you don't have to peel kiwi? The skin is completely edible and contains a lot of nutrients! If you have a high-powered blender, you can toss sliced kiwi in with the peel to save you some time. If you prefer to peel it though, go for it.
    • I prefer frozen pineapple, but fresh is great too!
    • I'm not big on protein powders, but this smoothie doesn't have a protein base like yogurt, so I added collagen peptide powder.
    • If you want to make your smoothie vegan, use your favorite plant-based protein powder and nondairy milk.
