This is my new favorite shake. Probably because it has an ingredient that you don't normally have often on the Fuhrman diet. But I figure if you don't have it too often then it's ok. You'll see it when you read the ingredients. I had it this morning for breakfast and craved it by mid afternoon so I made it again for myself. It's just a nice change to the other spinach shakes. I can get sick of those fast. I've decided in these two weeks that spinach shakes are a necessity and key to helping me stick to eating healthy and losing weight. I get in a good 2-4 cups of spinach each shake and that takes care of a good portion of greens. Since I don't prefer salad as much anymore it's a nice way to get it all down in one sitting and in sweet liquid form. I changed the recipe slightly to accomodate what i had. Anyway, here's the recipe:
Green Monster Spinach Smoothie
1 sliced banana
4-5 ice cubes
1 TB flaxseed
1 cup soy milk
1-2 TB all natural peanut butter (only ingredient nuts, and maybe a little salt, I have Adam's brand)
2-4 cups of spinach (I just grab a few handfuls, I don't really measure with a cup)
Blend all ingredients in a blender until nice and smooth. Enjoy
