Energizing Green Smoothie

This smoothie is one of my favorite Fundamental5 smoothies as it’s nutrient-dense and a great way to get your greens first thing in the morning. Hemp seeds are rich in protein, fiber and fatty acids, so I love adding them to smoothies as another great source of protein.

Ingredients

Units Scale

1 cup unsweetened flax milk (or your choice)
1 heaped tsp almond butter (or your favorite nut butter)
1/2 frozen banana chopped
1/4 avocado
2 large handfuls of baby spinach (or your favorite greens)
1 tsp maca powder
1/4 cup ice
1 date, pitted (or monkfruit/Stevia for sugarfree)
2 Tbsp hemp seeds

Toppings for crunch and chew:

1 Tbsp hemp seeds
1 tsp. Raw unsweetened cacao nibs

Instructions

  1. Blend all ingredients in a high-powered blender for 50 seconds, or until spinach is completely blended.
  2. Top with hemp seeds and enjoy!
