Variations and substitutions
Milk. I use organic skim milk in this recipe. Still, based on any dietary restrictions or lifestyle preferences, you can use coconut milk, almond milk, oat milk, or any other non-dairy milk.
Water and juices. You don't even have to use milk in this smoothie, you can use coconut water, orange juice or apple juice in place of the milk. If you're opting to go the juice route, I recommend using half juice and half water.
Optional Add-Ins. You can add seeds for an extra boost of healthy fats like Omega-3. Great seeds for that are chia seeds or hemp seeds.
Up to protein. If you like more grams of protein in your smoothies, you can add Greek yogurt, nut butters like almond butter, or a scoop of vanilla protein powder.
Add more fruit. You can absolutely add more frozen or fresh fruits to this smoothie. Some of my favorite fruits to add to this recipe are strawberries or mangoes. If you are using frozen fruit, you may have to add more liquid.Keyword green smoothie, pineapple green smoothie
