We are forging our way through living healthier this year. It seems more prudent than ever to take daily care of ourselves, even in the midst of caring for our littles.
David’s been making this green smoothie for years as a post workout fuel drink. His servings are pretty generous, so it works as a meal replacement for me, too.
Here is his go to simple & easy green smoothie recipe:
Ingredients for green smoothie:
- 2.5 scoops protein powder
- 2 cups almond milk
- Half an apple

- 5 grapes
- Half an orange
- Quarter cup frozen pineapple
- Quarter cup frozen mango
- 1 avocado
- 3 kale stalks
- 5 cups spinach
- Half cup baby carrots
- 1 small tomato
- Half cup of ice
- Most importantly in our house – 2 cups broccoli sprouts (optional)
How to make David’s green smoothie:
- Pour milk and protein powder into blender and start blending on low speed
- Add grapes

He wanted me to add the following disclosure:
If you’re looking for a sweet smoothie that tastes like a non-alcoholic daiquiri, then this isn’t for you.
