About This Recipe
Green Goddess Smoothie is a green smoothie that is super healthy and is loaded with fresh fruits and veggies. It comes together in just 5 minutes and can be served for a light breakfast or snack. You can also drink it as your pre or post-workout snack with the addition of preferred protein powder/hemp powder.
This creamy smoothie has no refined sugar and no dairy and if you are concerned about the taste, let me confirm that it doesn’t taste like you are drinking veggies. It has a natural sweetness from apples, bananas, and pineapples that perfectly balances that taste of spinach and avocado.
This green smoothie is vegan, gluten free and keto friendly too.
Ingredients
Fruits – This smoothie is loaded with fruits such as banana, pineapple and apple. Banana and pineapple are frozen ahead of time to add a thick and creamy consistency. The combination of these three fruits adds that perfect amount of sweetness and tartness in the smoothie.
You can also add other fruits like mango, pear, peach, strawberries etc to this smoothie.
Veggies – I add spinach, avocado and celery to this smoothie. They are a power house of nutrients and make this smoothie super healthy and detoxifying. Try to use babay spinach as it is less bitter than than the regular one. You can use fresh or frozen spinach.
Avocado add a lovely cream and rich texture to the smoothie. Make sure it is perfectly ripe othewise the smoothie will taste bitter.
You can also add carrots, kale and ginger to this detox smoothie.
Almond Milk – Add in some unsweetened almond milk or any other plant-based milk to thin down the smoothie. If you are not a vegan, then dairy milk will also work fine.
You can also replace the milk with coconut water, plain water, orange juice or kefir.
Others – I also add ground turmeric, chia seeds and lime juice to make this smoothie extra nutritious.
If you feel the need of sweetener in your smoothie, then a little amount of honey (not vegan), maple syrup or peanut butter will do the magic.
How To Make Green Goddess Smoothie
To a high-powered blender, add 1 and ½ cup almond milk, 1 red apple (peeled, cored and chopped), 1 large frozen banana, ½ cup frozen pineapple chunks, ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder, ½ stalk of celery (chopepd), 1 and ½ cup baby spinach, 1 tablespoon chia seeds, ½ avocado and 1 tablespoon lime juice and blend until all ingredients are well combined.
If necessary, add in more almond milk to thin the smoothie. Pour in glasses and serve.
Storage Suggestions
Just like other smoothies, green goddess smoothie tastes the best when served fresh! Leftovers can be stored in a mason jar or a covered glass jar for about a day in the refrigerator.
