Recipe Instructions:

Ingredients
1 cup yogurt

1 banana, broken into chunks

½ cup frozen blueberries

4 cups fresh spinach

1 tablespoon water, or as desired (Optional)

2 ice cubes, or as desired (Optional)

Directions
Layer yogurt, banana, and blueberries in a blender, respectively. Add as much spinach to blender that will fit; pour in water. Blend on high speed until smooth, adding the remaining spinach if needed. Add ice for a colder and thicker smoothie. Add more water for a thinner smoothie.

Cook's Notes:
I have tried frozen spinach - it adds an odd cooked taste - but is way cheaper and more convenient - so if you don't notice odd tastes, go for it.

Frozen fruits are just as good as fresh - and store longer. Frozen bananas are great! Additional fresh fruit can be added, if desired.
