The gorgeous verdant color of this invigorating smoothie is matched by refreshing flavor and creamy texture. Loaded with healthy spinach and a nice dose of fats, it’s one to reach for when you’re in need of a fast, light, and tasty breakfast or a pre- or post-workout snack. Need extra fat macros? Replace the almond milk with coconut milk, throw in some macadamia nuts, and add seeds as a garnish, and remember to recalculate your macros.

I used baby chard instead of spinach and half and half cream because that is what I had and only one teaspoon swerve and we liked it
