Spinach and fruits smoothie

 

I have already mentioned my trip to Cancun, and this is one more recipe I brought back from there. This one is from the “Healthy Bar” near one of the pools, where we used to have a healthy lunch, to get rid of the guilt from the heavy diners! I wasn’t sure about the proportions so I did several tests before I got it right, and here they are below, just for you!

Ingredients for 2 large glasses:

• 200 g to 300 g of fresh spinach
• 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley
• 1 apple
• 2 small bananas
• 1 large carrot
• 1 lemon juice
• 8 to 10 iced cubes

Times:

• Preparation: 10 mins
• Cooking: none
• Rest: none

1- Peel and cut the apple, the banana and the carrot into small bits. Wash and drain the spinach.

2- First put half of the spinach into the blender and mix, then add the rest and mix again.

3- Add the apple, the banana, the carrot and the lemon juice, and mix well again for a couple of minutes.

4- Finish by adding the iced cubes, give a last mix and it’s ready! 2 big glasses full of vitamins and energy!
