lazy green smoothie trick

IMG_20131110_102426

Smoothies will never take the place of my beloved crumpets & peanut butter, but a couple days a week I love blending up a smoothie to save time in the morning.

I bought the biggest bag of spinach in London at Morrisons the other day and decided to get lazy with it. After washing it I threw it in my cheap Argos blender with a bit of water and and made a spinach paste.  Poured into an icecube tray and left it to set over night.

Now I have 24 cubes of spinach to add to my morning smoothies for that extra green punch. As you can see below, I’m an, “everything but the kitchen sink” kinda smoothie girl so throw it all in and enjoy!

2 bananas (preferably frozen)
2 cubes of frozen spinach
vanilla yogurt (I like the sugary ones, I know… it’s not cool right now but I do)
Oats
Flax seed
Chia seed
a handfull of frozen berries
a teaspoon of peanut butter
