Nature’s Sweet Protein Smoothie

Nature at it’s best. This smoothie is creamy deliciousness. Whirl one up soon and enjoy the sweet goodness.

This is one of my favorite smoothies. It’s made with fresh spinach. Regular or baby spinach works. Why not add some fresh veggies whenever possible, even in a smoothie? I know what you’re thinking, “spinach in a smoothie?” You won’t taste the spinach — I promise. The only caveat is that you must use fresh spinach because you will taste the spinach in this if you use canned or frozen. Makes a delicious breakfast and healthy snack idea.  Give this wonderful, healthy and luscious smoothie a try soon. Once you taste it you’ll know what I’m talking about.
