Five minutes is all it takes to make this delicious Apple and Spinach Breakfast Smoothie. You might be thinking that there is absolutely no way it can only take five minutes. Let me assure you, that it certainly does! So, if you’re too tired to make a full-on breakfast, try this smoothie recipe! It will for sure give you the nutrients and energy you need to get going.
Not only is this smoothie quick, but it is easy to make. And, I’m here to show you just how easy it is. Typically, I always have these ingredients on hand in either my fridge, freezer, or cupboard. This Apple and Spinach smoothie makes enough for two servings or one big smoothie. So, if you plan on making it for more people, then scale the recipe measurements to whatever size you want.
The ingredients required to make this are: 2 cups almond or oat milk, 1 cup raw spinach, 1 large apple (any kind), 1 tablespoon chia seeds, and 4 ice cubes. The kind of apple I typically like to use is either Pink Lady or Red Delicious. Since I prefer to stay more on the sweet side with the flavor of this smoothie, I avoid tart apples like Granny Smith. However, if you love Granny Smith, then use it! Toss everything into a blender and give it a quick blend until smooth.
