To make it, blend together:
 1 frozen banana
 1 cup greens (baby spinach, destemmed kale, collards, chard, etc.)
 1 cup unsweetened milk (nut, soy, animal)
 Honey or maple syrup, to taste
ORANGE CREAMSICLE SMOOTHIE

Who needs ice cream when you can make a smoothie that tastes like your favorite
frozen treat? It’s really important to have a high-powered blender for this one, because
standard blenders can’t handle the orange slices very well.
 1 frozen banana
 1 orange, peeled or 1 clementines, peeled
 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER SMOOTHIE

This is another dessert-like smoothie—you can’t beat the classic combo of peanut butter
and chocolate! You can adjust the chocolate intensity of this smoothie by tweaking the
amount of cocoa powder you add.
 1 frozen banana
 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter
 1–3 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder
CREAMY PEANUT BUTTER BANANA SMOOTHIE

This smoothie is Juniper’s favorite! Mama likes it, too, because not only is it super tasty,
but it’s got a nice boost of protein thanks to the Greek yogurt and peanut butter. I
usually throw in a handful of spinach, too.
 2 frozen bananas
 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter
PINA COLADA SMOOTHIE

This is a healthy, virgin version of your favorite tropical cocktail! Coconut milk really
adds to the tropical flavor, but if you don’t have any, other kinds of milk will work fine,
too.
 2 frozen bananas
 1 cup pineapple chunks (canned or fresh)
 1 cup coconut milk (from the can)
STRAWBERRY BANANA SMOOTHIE

If you walk into any smoothie bar or coffeehouse, you’ll probably find a strawberry-
banana smoothie on the menu. And that’s because it’s a yummy combo that everyone
loves!
 1 frozen banana
 1/2 cup frozen strawberries
MOCHA SMOOTHIE
If you’re a coffee-aholic, this smoothie is for you! It uses leftover coffee to add lots of
java flavor. My tip for dealing with leftover coffee—pour it into an ice cube tray and
freeze. Then you have coffee cubes ready for mocha smoothies (or iced coffee)
whenever you need them.
 1 frozen banana
 1 cup strong-brewed coffee
 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
MIXED BERRY SMOOTHIE

If you head to the frozen fruit section at your local grocery store, you’ll probably spy a
few bags of mixed berries. They usually contain strawberries, blueberries, blackberries,
and raspberries. These are perfect for an antioxidant-packed, tasty smoothie!
 1 frozen banana
 1 cup frozen mixed berries
Honey or maple syrup, to taste
