2 of my favorite DETOX smoothie recipes
The green smoothie will be your daily boost of nutrition in this upcoming summr, guaranteed!
Are you eating enough greens every day? Nutritionists advise an adult should have about 300gr of vegetables and 100-200gr of fruits daily, but most of us probably only eat half of that required intake. I get it, the taste of vegetables and fruits is not for everyone. So in this blog post, I will share my favorite green smoothie recipes. These are the perfect drinks for summer: light, fresh, yummy and fully of those oh-so-good-for-your-skin vitamins.
- Recipe #1: Green Spinach Smoothie
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of plant-based milk (my favorite: almond milk)
- 1 handful of spinach
- 1 mango
- 1 apple
- 1 banana
- 1 passion fruit (optional)
- Chia seed
- Ice cubes
Instruction
- Pour milk into the blender (this recipe is all-blender friendly)
- Add spinach, mango, apple, banana, and passion fruit
- Blend well then add more fruits or ice up to your taste
- No sugar necessary as mango and banana already make the smoothie sweet and smooth.
- DON’T SPILL WHILE POURING (like I did)
- Top it up with chia and voila, it’s ready to serve.
- Recipe #2: Spinach, banana and peanut butter smoothie
Recipe:
- 1 cup of low-fat milk
- 1 handful of spinach
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1 banana
- 1 spoon of peanut butter
- Almonds
Instructions:
- Pour milk into the blender
- Add spinach, avocado, banana
- Blend, then add peanut butter up to your taste

Super yummy and easy, right?!
