For 2 servings
Add ingredients to the blender in the correct order for the smoothest blend. Pour in the almond milk first, followed by the Greek yogurt, fresh spinach, chia seeds, and maple syrup (if using).
Add the frozen mixed berries and frozen banana slices on top of the other ingredients.
Secure the lid and start blending on a low speed, gradually increasing to high. Blend for 60-90 seconds, or until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, with no visible spinach flecks.
Check the consistency. If the smoothie is too thick, add another splash of almond milk and blend for 10 more seconds. If it's too thin, add a few more frozen berries or a couple of ice cubes and blend again.
Pour the smoothie into two glasses. Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.

Add one scoop of your favorite vanilla or unflavored protein powder along with the other ingredients for a post-workout recovery drink.
Include 1 tablespoon of almond butter or a quarter of an avocado for extra creaminess and healthy fats that promote satiety.
Swap the mixed berries for 1 cup of frozen mango and pineapple chunks. Use coconut milk instead of almond milk for a tropical flavor.
Use half spinach and half kale for a different nutrient profile. Kale has a slightly stronger flavor, so start with a small amount if you're new to it.
Substitute the Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt (like coconut or soy) and ensure you are using a plant-based milk and maple syrup.
Mixed berries and spinach are packed with antioxidants like flavonoids and vitamin C, which help protect your cells from damage caused by free radicals.
With contributions from fruits, spinach, and chia seeds, this smoothie is high in dietary fiber, which aids in digestion, promotes gut health, and helps you feel full longer.
Greek yogurt is a fantastic source of high-quality protein, which is essential for repairing and building muscle tissue, making this a great post-workout option.
The high content of Vitamin C from the berries and Vitamin A from the spinach work together to support a strong and healthy immune system.
This smoothie contains approximately 200-220 calories per serving, depending on the specific ingredients used (like full-fat vs. non-fat yogurt and optional sweeteners).
Yes, it's very healthy. It provides a balanced mix of carbohydrates from fruit for energy, protein from Greek yogurt for muscle support, fiber from chia seeds and spinach for digestion, and a wide range of vitamins and minerals.
While it's best served fresh, you can store it in an airtight container (like a mason jar) in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. It may separate, so be sure to shake it well before drinking.
No, you won't! The sweetness of the banana and berries completely masks the mild flavor of the spinach. It's an excellent and undetectable way to add a serving of greens to your diet.
You can, but the smoothie will be much thinner and less chilled. If using all fresh fruit, I recommend adding 1/2 to 1 cup of ice cubes to achieve a thick, cold consistency.
To make it thicker, use only frozen fruits, add an extra tablespoon of chia seeds (and let it sit for 5 minutes to gel), or reduce the amount of almond milk slightly.
