Orange Spinach Banana Smoothie

This spinach banana smoothie is a healthy citrus gem.  It's refreshing and filling all at once—making it a great meal replacement. Feel free to add a scoop of plant-based protein powder to boost it all the way. This orange smoothie is also known as Orange Jewels from my best-selling recipe book, Simple Green Smoothies.

Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup spinach
  • ¾ cup coconut water
  • ½ lemon peeled
  • ½ banana
  • 1 orange peeled
  • 1 serving Protein Smoothie Boost optional

Instructions

  • Peel and slice oranges to help blend easier.
  • Blend spinach, coconut water and orange together until smooth.
  • Add remaining ingredients and blend again.

Notes

  • Use 1 frozen fruit to make smoothie cold
  • If you prep your smoothie and freeze it ahead, add a bit more liquid when blending. The orange is liquid and fruit, so if frozen then more liquid will help it blend well
  • Swap in ¼ an avocado for the banana to lower the natural sugar in this smoothie
  • Swap regular water in for coconut water
  • Leave the white pith on the orange and lemon for more nutrition
