Spinach Shake

My husband and I are trying to eat better and get fit in the new year.  We are starting out with a spinach shake in the morning and eating more fruits and veggies during the day.

This morning I was drinking my smoothie and my 4 year old came up to me and said "Mommy why are you drinking barf???" Yummmmm that just made this even better! ;)  Wow, kids are dang funny and honest. :)

This shake is incredibly filling and delicious!  Give it a whirl.   I have  been drinking one around 5:30 am and have been good until 12:00 or so.


Blend the following in the blender:

1 scoop of vanilla whey protein(we bought ours at Costco), 
3 cups of spinach 
1⁄2 banana 
2 tbsp of organic peanut butter
3⁄4 cup of unsweetened almond milk 
2 cups of ice

Jessie has a Vitamix and has been making green smoothies for the past week or so. She got her recipes from some raw food site. If y'all say they're good, I'll take your word for it. ;o)

Just popping by to see how your holidays were. I'm not too sure about that shake - what does it taste like?

Wishing you all the blessing for a great new year!
