Creamy Brain Food Smoothie
Servings: 1
This creamy green smoothie tastes like tropical sunshine — sweet mango and juicy pear mellowed by buttery avocado, with coconut water keeping it light and supporting brain health.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cup spinach
- 1 cup coconut water
- 1 pear ripe + cored
- ½ cup mango frozen
- ¼ avocado
- 2 tbsp hemp hearts
Instructions
- Blend spinach and coconut water together until smooth.
- Add remaining ingredients and blend again. You can either blend in hemp hearts or sprinkle on top.
Notes
- Swap hemp hearts for homemade protein powder for the additional protein
- Swap spinach for kale or romaine if that’s what’s in your fridge.
- Use banana instead of pear for a slightly sweeter, more classic smoothie flavor.
- Replace mango with frozen pineapple or berries for a different nutrient profile.
- Sub chia seeds or ground flaxseed for hemp hearts if needed.
- Use plain water or almond milk if you’re out of coconut water.
