Mara‘s Personalized Green Monster

I refused to try the green monster for the LONGEST time. Spinach? In a smoothie? What?? Then I saw person after person whose food tastes I trusted drinking these beautiful bright green frothy smoothies, and decided “what the heck, I’ll do it.”

I hit up the produce market and got 3 lbs of baby spinach, some strawberries, and a few other things, and that night after dinner, I made myself my very first Green Monster.

I call it “personalized” because I will ONLY drink Green Monsters in my big “M” mug! (Well, or my Amazing Grass cup but thats another story.)

Ingredients:

*3 cups baby spinach
*1 c. vanilla soy milk
*1 very ripe banana
*7 frozen strawberries
*3 slices frozen peaches
*chia seeds
*1 scoop chocolate Jay Robb

It’s the color of springtime, and gives me enough energy to keep up with my students AND my campers!
