RECIPE BY Cooking Light

Smoothies are a quick way to kick-start your day with extra fruits, vegetables, and fiber. Avoid juices and powders with added sugars; instead choose whole ripe fruit to add a sweet touch naturally. Dairy-free option: Use a (5.3-ounce) container of dairy-free soy yogurt alternative.

  • 1/2 cup baby spinach leaves
  • 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 (5.3-oz.) container plain 2% reduced-fat Greek yogurt

Delicious and refreshing

This was delicious, easy to make, and refreshing.  My husband and I each had one for breakfast and enjoyed it.  I'm glad the recipe included a picture.  I normally would not try a green smoothie.  This one has spinach in it but you can not see it or taste it.  It is a beautiful berry color.

Pretty disgusting. Ingredients eaten separately could have been served as an attractive plate and would have tasted much better.
