Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1 cup kale leaves
- 1 medium ripe banana
- 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 cup ice cubes
Directions
Step 1
Start by washing the fresh spinach and kale leaves thoroughly under cold running water to remove any dirt or grit. Shake off excess water or use a salad spinner to dry if available.
Step 2
Peel the banana and break it into chunks for easy blending.
Step 3
Add the spinach, kale, banana, pineapple chunks, coconut milk, lime juice, grated ginger, chia seeds, and ice cubes into a high-speed blender.
Step 4
Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides as necessary. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
Step 5
Once the smoothie is well-blended and creamy, taste and adjust ginger or lime juice to taste if desired.
Step 6
Pour the smoothie into two tall glasses and serve immediately to enjoy the maximum freshness and nutritional benefits.
Step 7
Optional: Garnish with a slice of lime or a small sprig of mint for a touch of aromatic freshness.
