Banana Pear Smoothie

Banana Pear Smoothie

I drink a “green smoothie” every morning and this is one of my favorites! It is so easy to make and keeps you satisfied through the morning.

Banana Pear Smoothie

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of water
  • 2 handfuls of spinach
  • 1 pear
  • 1 banana
  • 1/3 cup almond butter
Banana Pear Smoothie
1. Mix the water and spinach first. I recommend always doing this when you make a green smoothie. It’s easier to blend in the other ingredients after. I use a Nutri Bullet System.

*Optional* I add in 1 tablespoon of Ground Flax Seeds in all my smoothies. I usually add half a scoop of protein powder, but omit it in this one because of the almond butter.

2. Add in the other ingredients and blend. If you want a thicker consistency I would use a frozen banana.

3. Enjoy!

  • Spinach is a power food. It’s loaded with vitamins, a good source of omega 3 fatty acids, and has anti cancer antioxidants.
  • Bananas are a great source of potassium and vitamin C.
  • Pears have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory flavonoids, and potentially anti-cancer phytonutrients like cinnamic acids. The skin of the pear has also been show to contain about half of the pear’s total dietary fiber.
  • Almonds reduce heart attack risk and lower “bad” cholesterol.
