  • FRUIT THICKIE INGREDIENTS

  • 1 Cup Spinach tightly packed or 2 cups loosely packed. (Or any other mild greens)

Instructions
 

  • Blend the ingredients in the order listed. If you are making a green smoothie blend the greens and liquid first and then blend the rest of the ingredients. This creates more space in your blender. Add more water if required to thin it out. Substitute any of the ingredients for whatever you already have. If your smoothie is too warm, you can cool it down in the fridge or freeze some of your ingredients before blending. It is better to add frozen ingredients at the end to cool the smoothie down.
