Ingredients
  

1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any preferred plant-based milk)

1 ripe banana, frozen

1 tablespoon matcha green tea powder

1 scoop vanilla protein powder (can be plant-based or whey)

1 tablespoon almond butter (or substitute with peanut butter)

1 tablespoon chia seeds

1 cup fresh spinach leaves, washed and dried

½ teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

Ice cubes (optional, for a thicker texture)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients. Make sure the banana is frozen to ensure a creamy texture. If you’re using fresh spinach, wash the leaves thoroughly and dry them with a paper towel or in a salad spinner.

    Blend the Base: In a high-speed blender, add the unsweetened almond milk followed by the frozen banana, matcha green tea powder, protein powder, almond butter, chia seeds, and the fresh spinach.

      Sweeten to Taste: If you like your smoothie on the sweeter side, drizzle in the honey or maple syrup. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no lumps.

        Adjust Consistency: Check the consistency of your smoothie. If it feels too thick, simply add a splash more of almond milk until you reach your preferred consistency. For a thicker texture, feel free to toss in a few ice cubes and blend again until smooth.

          Serve and Enjoy: Pour your vibrant green smoothie into a glass and enjoy immediately. If you need to store it, you can keep it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, but it’s best enjoyed fresh! For an added touch, consider sprinkling some extra chia seeds or a light dusting of matcha on top for an appealing finish.
