stumbled upon a green monster while visiting one of my fave sites, skinnytaste.com
it has quickly replaced my breakfast and is now my "go-to" every morning. yes, it is a green smoothie with the primary ingredient being spinach and well, looks and sounds pretty gross! however, green is my fave color and i LOVE spinach, so i thought i would give it a try - as i had all the ingredients on hand.
it was AWESOME - all i tasted was banana and peanut butter - nothing wrong with that. not to mention all the fiber, vitamins and minerals you are getting!! what are you waiting for - give it a try...it is filling and so good for you - provides lots of energy too!!!
green monster (add to blender in the following order - a must to mix evenly)
6-8oz skim milk (i use 8)
1TB ground flax seed
2TB PB2 (love, love, love this stuff)
2 heaping handfuls of baby spinach
4-6oz plain non-fat greek yogurt (depends how much i have left in the container...lol )
1 sliced banana
MIX and enjoy!!!!
would love to hear what you think about it - whether you already had your green monster for the day or just tried it for the first time. there are so many other healthy add-ons to the green monster...cannot wait to try them all, but for now - sticking with the original.
