{Healthy Easy Smoothies - They Are Yummy, Too!}

Handful Fresh Spinach
2 Bananas, Sliced
5 Strawberries, Sliced
1/2 C. Almond Butter
1 Tablespoon Wheatgerm
1/3 C. Oats
1/4 C. Almond Milk (Or More)
1/4 C. Strawberry Banana V8 {Light}

Place your spinach, wheat germ & oats in your blender or food processor & pulse until fine or your desired consistency. Add your fruit & blend. Depending on the consistency you prefer, add your milk & juice. Remember, ANY type of juice & milk can be used. You can also just use water.

I used fresh fruit for this smoothie, but froze my fruit to get a colder smoothie. You can definitely use store bought frozen fruit.

Also - a lot of us do not have the time or energy to get up every morning and do this. If you want to plan ahead, take some time to put everything in a Ziplock bag - put it in the freezer & plop it in your blender in the morning. Less time, less mess to clean. I usually don't put the liquid or peanut butter in the bag to be frozen, I add that when I make them.

Enjoy & let me know how you like it or if you have any questions!
