I have officially been labeled an addict… of the smoothie variety.
I’ve had a smoothie for breakfast every single day for the past week. I just can’t help it y’all!
I know you’re probably tired of seeing smoothies, and I promise to take a break after sharing this one. This one cannot wait.
Asiya, from Chocolate and Chillies, posted a Green Monster Smoothie recipe a while back. Considering the fact that I’m a smoothie junkie now, I finally got around to trying it. I’ve finally found a spinach based smoothie that I can call “the one!” This one is spot-on and is perfect for breakfast or post-workout.
It’s so good that it’s toddler approved! So don’t waste your time and wait like I did… Go ahead and take a dive into this fresh, healthy, spinachy, monstery goodness!

Looks great!!! Love how yours turned out a nice green colour..I always have flecks of spinach since I use an immersion blender. Thanks for the shoutout! Inshallah I will share this on my FB page! Oh..and I love your straw!
Thanks for the shoutout girlfriend! 🙂
Btw, I found the straws at our local grocery store! They were in the party supplies section with the paper plates and napkins 🙂
You have so much more variety in America….I would have to go to a specialty store or order online for something like that 🙁
You know I was surprised to find it at this grocery store too! I looked around at other grocery stores and none of them had any! I guess I just got lucky, because otherwise I would have also have to had ordered them online.
I love the gorgeous green color of your smoothie. Love all the ingredients you have used here!
Thanks!

Woah the green monster is quite popular now. I know people including myself who will cringe at the thought of spinach in a drink lol Maybe I’ll try it someday without the bananas ofcourse 😉
