Frequently Asked Questions

Can other milks be used?

Yes! The calorie count stays low by using almond milk, but feel free to substitute it with any type of milk you like, such as cow’s milk, oat milk, or coconut milk (just note that the nutritional content will vary).

Can I use a regular banana instead of a frozen one?

Yes, but a frozen banana is very useful. It thickens the smoothie, makes it creamier, and colder, without requiring a whole pile of ice cubes that can dilute the richness of flavor.

What if I hate spinach? Q: Is there spinach in it?

It disappears in the smoothie but adds nutrients without changing the taste. If you prefer to use other greens, kale is an excellent stand-in.

Can I meal prep this smoothie?

This smoothie is optimal to consume when it is freshly made. You can, however, prep your ingredients by putting a banana, some spinach and some avocado (get what you’ve got, just peeled and pitted whatever you have) in a freezer bag. When you’re ready to make it, add the contents of the bag to the blender with the liquids and blend.
