As you may have noticed, I’ve been making myself a lot of fruit shakes and smoothies lately, especially during the preparations for my yoga retreats. I need to go thru days of preparations where I eat only salads, fruits and juices. So when we have to prepare, fruit shakes are a great way to go. Plus, it’s more appealing to me than eating one fruit at a time.
So the BB Shake does not feel too lonely with the quirky name… here comes the SS Smoothie. This one has strawberries and spinach. And again, the fruit flavors are sooooo awesome; you can’t taste nor see the spinach in the final product. This shake is also very good friends of the Stealth Shake. As you can see, after two attempts of incorporating spinach into my shakes, none of them have turned out green yet.
THE SS SMOOTHIE
3 strawberries, quartered A handful of fresh baby spinach 1 cup of pomegranate juice A big squirt of agave nectar 3 cubes of ice A bit of water , if the smoothie is too thick
- Mix everything in your blender… and enjoy.
Here’s a picture of the spinach and strawberries before blending – trying to give you proof that indeed there’s spinach in the mix and that I did not make it up. Another lesson… Madelyn, needs to get a glass jar for the blender so the blog pictures can look better. Same goes for the plastic cup I used to drink it.
I have fresh spinach and fresh strawberries from my CSA delivery and now I know what to try 🙂 I’ve never had one of the green shakes before.
KFC – It’s not going to look very green… but it will sure taste very good. Enjoy!!!
Interesting! Never considered mixing strawberries in with spinach – bet that would help with flavor ( have a problem in that spinach just tastes like dirt to me…sigh). thanks!
In this blog there is a picture of the spinach and strawberries before mixing. This is trying to give a proof that spinach is present in juice.
