When I got out of bed this morning, I was a little worried about what smoothie I would have for breakfast. My groceries are getting low and so are my grocery funds. However, this turned out to be an UH-MAZE-ING smoothie and full of lots of ingredients for someone who thought she was out of food.
The title of this blog doesn't seem quite right because there's a lot more than just ginger, blueberries and pineapple but I thought those were the most predominant ingredients so, there ya go. As a matter of fact, I didn't actually put pineapple in this smoothie but I used pineapple juice. I already had some in the house but I'm sure you could substitute the pineapple juice with fresh, ripe pineapple and have the same flavor.
Be aware that I use a Ninja and I tend to make more than I really need. You may need to adjust your amounts if you are using something smaller, like a NutriBullet. Personally, I am DYING for a NutriBullet for easier cleanup. *Hey NutriBullet, wanna help me out here? :)
Ingredients:
- handful spinach
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 frozen clementine
- handful frozen grapes
- sprinkle of frozen blueberries, (probably 1/3 cup)
- 1 inch grated ginger
- juice of 1 lemon
- 1/3 cup pineapple juice
- 1 scoop mixed berry protein powder
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds, plus more for sprinkling
This is a sweet tooth satisfying smoothie. Enjoy!
