Getting tempted here from this greenie:
But trust me, they are not always green, depending on what you put in your green smoothie, it can be brown, pink, purple etc.
I LOVE my Blendtec and I wouldn’t trade it for any other blender in the world.
Like I mentioned in my Peanutbutter Smoothie blogpost: 1,560-watt countertop blender with 3 HP direct-drive motor and it spins at up to 29,000 rpm!
I am sure lots of you have a blender at home…I hope it does its job. If not, tell me and I’ll give you some tips! :)
I love to use frozen ingredients to get a slushy/slurpee consistency, especially in the summer: So refreshing!
Let’s blend it!
- Prep Time 10 minutes
- Blending Time 30-60 seconds or longer
- Difficulty Easy
- Servings 2-3 servings depending on blender jar
For the green smoothie:
- 1-2 cups spinach (frozen works fine too)
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- 1-2 tsp. Raw Cocao Powder
- a little less than a handful of Goji Berries
- 1/2 Avocado
- 2 tablespoons agave or dates to sweeten your smoothie
- For serving: Ball Mason Jars
- For serving: Colored paperstraws
- I am using the Blendtec WildSide Jar: up to 36 oz (total volume approximately 90 fl oz)
- 1. Place all the ingredients in your blender and blend until very smooth and creamy. Make sure you have a strong blender which is able to crush ice.
- 2. Here is a close up of the superfoods extras I added.
- 3. Serve in a mason jar or any other kind of cute glass/mug and enjoy your healthy smoothie which will make you glow, glow, glow!

Niner, this looks soooo good! Thank you for this new recipe and getting me onto green smoothies period. We both have a sweet tooth too (obviously ;-) but drinking green smoothies has made such a difference… It’s such a good way to get veggies in me that I wouldn’t normally eat… and a lot more than just by having a salad or veggies with dinner. *Thank you so so much for getting me into green smoothies!* And because of you I have a blendtec now too… It is amazing! I love the texture (so smooth) – it really is better than the average blender.
Can’t wait to try this one out!
Marian, thank you SO much for your comment.
It’s more than amazing that you love green smoothies now, it means a lot to me because I care for you!! :)
I am so happy we can both share these healthy things now, so much fun and so good for us! I hope many people will follow, even when they have a sweet tooth, like we have :)
Much love as usual and thanks for making me smile <3
