Sunday Smoothie


I am a creature of habit. We used to make this smoothie every single day, but it got to be too much and became a Sunday morning tradition instead. Sometimes I make it during the week though, because it's nice to get a big dose of fruits and veggies in such a convenient and tasty form.

A digital kitchen scale is super useful for this recipe. It's been forever since I've used measuring cups for it so I don't even know what those measurements would be.

Sunday Smoothie
This recipe make 6 cups, so adjust accordingly if your blender is smaller.

Ingredients:
1 banana
15 ounces orange juice
150 g carrots
150 g fresh baby spinach
150 g frozen blueberries
170 g frozen mango
170 g frozen pineapple

Directions:
Layer ingredients in the blender and turn that baby on high. It's fun to watch the smoothie change from green in color to purple (it's the simple things).

I like to freeze this smoothie in 6oz mason jars. They thaw (without getting too warm, because warm smoothie is just gross) in our microwave for 1 minute on high.
