Recipe of the Month: Full-Flavored Smoothies

Banana & Blueberry Smoothie

Ingredients 1 cup frozen blueberry 1 cup frozen baby spinach 1 fresh banana (cut in slices) 1/4 cup of water Preparation 1. Place the water, blueberries, spinach, and banana in a blender or food processor and blend until just combined. 2. Check the consistency and add an additional drip of water if needed. Continue to blend until the mixture is smooth. Enjoy! Tip: If you’re not a fan of the spinach-y taste, add 1/4 cup of orange juice instead of water. The OJ brings out more of the blueberry flavor and hides the spinach well. Great smoothie for breakfast or snack.
