My FAVORITE Green Smoothie (to date.)

Have you ever had a green smoothie that didn't taste green? Me neither. That is until this green smoothie came along. My sister Darci shared the recipe with me. It's from CleanSimpleEats but I've tweaked it just a bit. WARNING: I'm a bit of an "ish" when it comes to concoctions in the kitchen. 

1 cup(ish) water
1 scoop protein powder. I like this one. 
1/4 cup(ish) coconut milk (full fat, for your hormones!)
1 big handful of spinach
1 spoonful natural peanut butter
1 tsp. vanilla
some ice

Blend on medium and then high, just because high feels more smoothie-serious. 

Here’s your visual How-To, minus the water, ice and vanilla!

That's it. 
Easy & delicious.
I still haven't persuaded Taft to try it, but Geoff, Trey, Chase and Addie all agree, "It doesn't taste green!"

Note: I happen to like green, but the rest of my family does not. 
Let me know what you think!
