A Lotta Greens Smoothie

Aren't they all green? Pretty much- but this one is a lotta greens! I snuck in a surprise green veggie for fun! Frozen zucchini is one of my favorite smoothie ingredients as it adds the benefits of a vegetable & improves the texture in a similar way to a banana. The flax seed & hemp hearts are optional if you don't have them on hand but are a fun way to add healthy fat & protein for a more nutritionally balanced smoothie.

What you'll need:

• 1 handful greens - I used spinach

• 1/3 c whole milk

• 1/3 c chopped zucchini, use frozen or fresh but frozen preferred

• 1/4 avocado

• 1 Tbsp ground flax seed

• 2 Tbsp hemp hearts

• 1 c cold water

• 1 1/2 c frozen nectarine

• 1 handful of ice

How to:

1. Add all ingredients to a blender & blend

2. Add more ice or liquid to make the texture thicker or thinner, respectively

3. Top with peanut butter (I used Crazy Richard's as pictured) & granola for fun
