Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup California Giant blueberries
  • 1 frozen banana
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 1 cup spinach
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Spatula

Method
 

Blending Your Smoothie
  1. First, gather all your ingredients. For the smoothest blend, I recommend adding your liquids to the blender first. So, pour in the almond milk. Next, add your fresh ingredients like the spinach, followed by the frozen banana, California Giant blueberries, Greek yogurt, and lemon juice. Finally, sprinkle the chia seeds on top.
  2. Begin blending on a low speed to get everything moving, then gradually increase to a high speed. Blend for about 45 to 60 seconds until completely smooth and creamy, with no visible chunks. If ingredients stick to the sides, pause, scrape them down with a spatula, and continue blending.
Serving Your Smoothie
  1. Once your smoothie is perfectly smooth and creamy, pour it into your favorite glass. For a beautiful finish and an extra nutritional boost, top with a few extra fresh blueberries and a sprinkle of chia seeds.
