This Detox Smoothie is loaded with nutrient-dense fruits and vegetables. It tastes great and will leave you feeling full and satisfied!
INGREDIENTS
- 1/2 cup water (or orange juice)
- 1 green apple
- 1/2 cup frozen pineapple chunks
- 1/2 frozen banana
- 1/2 inch fresh ginger , peeled and minced
- 1 cup fresh spinach
- small handful fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
INSTRUCTIONS
- Combine all of the ingredients in a blender, and blend until smooth. Pour into a glass and serve right away.
- If you don’t have have a high-speed blender, I recommend blending the spinach, cilantro, and ginger with the water first, to help break them down completely. Then add in the fruit and lime juice, and blend again.

Recipe Notes:
- Feel free to make any substitutions that you?d like to in this recipe. Parsley is a good alternative for the cilantro, and frozen mango works as a good swap for pineapple. If you don?t care for bananas in a smoothie, try using 1/4 of an avocado instead to add creaminess.
