Erin's A.M. Smoothie

Erin is my older sister and is the mother of 3 adorable and very active children.  To make sure she gets breakfast in, she makes a delicious smoothie with yummy fruit and, get this, spinach!  I have made smoothies with spinach before that tasted like spinach, but hers doesn't AT ALL.  Don't get me wrong, I love spinach but the flavor doesn't really appeal in a cold, pureed form.  Great for some quick vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, and calcium in the morning though.  Thanks Erin!

~ I know it is green green green, but I swear the taste of spinach is masked behind the banana and pineapple flavors! ~

frozen banana ~ I have tried this with a regular banana and it isn't the same.  As Erin said when she first made it for me, the frozen banana makes the smoothie super cold and refreshing.  Totes!
two handfuls of spinach, rinsed
a little less than a cup of coconut milk
half a can of pineapple with juice

Add the coconut milk to the blender first (always put liquids in first) and bbbbllllllleeeeeennnnnnnddddddd it up.  Pop in a straw and you have a tasty breakfast packed with lots of vitamins!

Note: This may not be the best source of protein for the morning, but you could add some Greek yogurt or snack on a handful of almonds to add in that neceesary morning protein.
