How to make a green smoothie with strawberries?
Maybe you were wondering: How to make green smoothies that taste better?
Have you ever thought about adding strawberries to your green smoothie?
It’s a great way to make your smoothie taste fantastic. Just to add some strawberries.
The magic of the smoothie is its ability to hide nourishing ingredients like spinach.
But when combined with strawberries, even spinach tastes delicious.
Is Spinach good in a smoothie?
Spinach thanks to its neutral taste and the ability to blend up without leaving little chunks in your drink is the ideal choice for a green smoothie.
Spinach gives the smoothie this green color. But next to that spinach provides a generous amount of fiber, folate, calcium, and vitamins A, C, and K.
Spinach is packed with carotenoids—antioxidants that promote healthy eyes.
The same for strawberries (which like blueberries and raspberries) are high in antioxidants, which protect healthy cells from many cancers.
When added to your smoothie, spinach will give it this dark green color, but it won’t affect the taste or texture. While the strawberry will give it a divine taste.
By the way, since spinach is rich in vitamins and antioxidants, it’s almost a shame not to toss a handful into every smoothie you make.
