Have no fear! This recipe is fool proof. Even the biggest skeptic will love this one. Place the ingredients into the blender in the following order: 1) Flax, 2) spinach, 3) banana, 4) milk. The reason for this order is so the heavier ingredients weigh down the flax and spinach and keep it from flying up around the blender and sticking to the side. Blend everything on the highest setting for 1 minute or so. Finally, add ice and blend on the ice setting. Pour into a large, fancy glass. Sit back, gulp it down, and be prepared to have endless energy!<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\">Blueberry-Banana Green Monster<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2-3 cups organic spinach<\/li>\n<li>1-1.25 cups milk (your choice of cow&#8217;s milk, soy, hemp, almond, rice, etc)<\/li>\n<li>1 tablespoon flax (optional)<\/li>\n<li>1 banana<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup blueberries<\/li>\n<li>ice<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Directions<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>Place the ingredients into the blender and blend like a mad person!
