Lemon Lime Green Smoothie

Ingredients

1 cup pineapple (fresh, frozen, or canned in its own juice, cubed)

1 medium avocado (seed removed)

2 handfuls organic spinach

1 cup plant-based yogurt (unsweetened)

1 cup plant-based milk (unsweetened)

1 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)

1 tbsp lime juice (freshly squeezed)

1 cup organic apple (cubed)

2 tbsp hemp seeds (hulled)

½ cup water (more as needed)

1 handful ice (optional), +1 handful as desired

Directions

Add all ingredients, except the ice, to a blender and blend until smooth. Start with ½ cup of water and add more as needed to reach the desired consistency.

Taste for additional flavor or ingredients of your choice. Add ice and blend if you like it icy cold (if you used frozen pineapple, it may already be cold enough for you!).
