Tropical Paradise Green Smoothie

Or should I call this "how to get your kid to drink spinach"? This is a delicious smoothie that is easy too.  It's two year old tested and approved (as in, more Smoobie, Mommy?) I use a hand immersion blender, but a regular blender would work great for this smoothie!

If you go ahead and buy two cans of coconut milk and four bananas, you can make this smoothie four times with one pineapple!

Tropical Paradise Smoothie


1/4 pineapple
1 banana, chopped into large pieces
1/2 can coconut milk
2 - 3 handfuls spinach

Directions:

If you buy a whole pineapple, use a sharp knife to remove the outside and the core. Of course at the farmers market, they didn't have any already prepped because I was there early! The early bird cuts the pineapple, I suppose. 
 

Cut the pineapple into large chunks and place in blending cup with the banana. Add half of the can of coconut milk. Blend!


Add the spinach a handful at a time. You may want to add water to help the spinach blend to a nice consistency. 


Delicious finished smoothie! If only we were experiencing tropical weather...
