Kiwi Green Apple Smoothie

Smoothies are one of the simplest ways to support your “eat better” goals—without overcomplicating your day.

When life gets busy (and let’s be honest, it usually is), sitting down to build perfectly balanced meals every time isn’t always realistic. That’s where a well-built smoothie can be a game changer.

With the right combination of protein, carbs, healthy fats, and fiber, smoothies can help support steady energy, keep you feeling satisfied, and make it easier to get in key nutrients — something that becomes even more important in midlife.

They’re also incredibly flexible:

• need a quick breakfast?

• pre- or post-workout fuel?

• a simple mid-day boost?

A smoothie can do all of that in just a few minutes.

This Kiwi Green Apple Smoothie is a fresh, flavorful option with the perfect balance of tart and sweet—and it’s one you’ll come back to again and again.

Ingredients

• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder

• 1 C fresh (or frozen) organic baby spinach

• 1 green apple, chopped

• 1 kiwi, peeled and sliced

• 1 banana, peeled

• 1/2-2/3 C unsweetened vanilla almond milk (or milk of choice)

• Ice to desired thickness if using all fresh ingredients

*Makes one large smoothie or 2 small smoothies

Want to keep your smoothie on the juicy side? Leave out the protein powder and add a Tablespoon of flax or chia seeds instead!
