Our Favorite Green Smoothie




I mentioned last week that we didn't particularly care for the taste of green smoothies. We are all picky eaters in this house, and the only fruit my husband even likes is oranges. I wasn't sure if oranges would taste all right in a smoothie, but  when I saw a big bag at Aldi for $1.29 I figured it had to be worth a try! Much to my delight, everyone in my family, loves this recipe. I'm a little embarrassed to post this because it's ridiculously simple to make, but just in case you want to try an orange green smoothie, here is the recipe;

11/2- 2 cups of vanilla or regular almond milk.
3 oranges
11/2 cups of spinach
2 cups ice

Blend until smooth. Serves six

See how simple that is? But I'm a simple person, so it makes me happy. :)

What are some of your favorite smoothie recipes?

  1. I once saw a recipe for a smoothie that had orange, banana, and honey. I tried making one, but forgot the honey, so it didn't taste super yummy. If I had put the honey, I'm sure it would've been soooooooo good. I'm not sure if it said to do ice or not, but I think it would be great with. Unfortunately, I don't think our blender would work very well if we had ice in it, and the one time I actually tried this one was at a friend's house using their VitaMix. =) Oh, I think the smoothie is supposed to be like an Orange Julius. Yum! =)
