- 2 tablespoons Pea Protein Powder
- 1 large Banana
- 1 cup Almond Milk
- 1 tablespoon Chia Seeds
- 0.5 whole Avocado
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 5 cubes Ice Cubes
Directions
Step 1
Start by preparing your ingredients. Wash the spinach and kale thoroughly under cold running water to ensure any dirt or residue is removed.
Step 2
Peel the banana, and cut it into chunks for easier blending. Place them aside.
Step 3
Scoop out half of an avocado, removing the seed, and put it in your blender.
Step 4
In your blender, add in 1 cup of almond milk. Make sure to choose unsweetened almond milk to keep your smoothie healthy and to control sweetness.
Step 5
Next, add the pea protein powder for a soy-free protein boost. If you prefer, you can adjust the quantity based on your protein needs.
Step 6
Add in the banana chunks, spoon in the chia seeds, spin in the honey to taste, and evenly distribute the ice cubes.
Step 7
Now, add the spinach and kale into the blender.
Step 8
Secure the lid on your blender and blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This should take about 60-90 seconds depending on your blender's power.
Step 9
Taste the smoothie; if you'd like it sweeter, you can add a little more honey or a natural sweetener of your choice and blend again briefly.
Step 10
Pour the smoothie into two glasses, and it's ready to be served.
Step 11
Enjoy immediately while it's fresh and chilled for the best flavor and nutritional benefits.
