    I love healthy green smoothie recipes. They are an amazing way to start your day strong and fill your body with essential nutrients.

    Chopped frozen banana, green apple, pear, chia seeds, lemon juice, spinach, and oat milk in a blender cup.

    Substitutions

    Missing an ingredient? Don't worry, this homemade cleansing drink is easily customizable. Here are some suggestions:

    • Spinach - instead of spinach you can use kale, collard greens, or swiss chard.
    • Banana - if you are not a banana fan, try swapping frozen banana with Applesauce, mashed sweet potato, or mango.
    • Pear - you can substitute fresh pear with pineapple chunks, white grapes, or papaya.
    • Oat Milk- feel free to use any dairy-free milk you have at home. Or you can easily make Cashew Milk or Almond Milk at home. Super easy and affordable!
    • Chia Seeds - replace chia seeds with ground flaxseed, pumpkin seeds (pepitas), or hemp seeds.

    Variations

    • Include Protein - you can add vegan Greek yogurt, rolled oats, hemp seeds, or your favorite protein powder to make it more satisfying.
    • Extra Creamy - mix in a tablespoon of Peanut Butter or Cashew Butter for added creaminess.
    • Super Sweet - try adding refined sugar-free mix-ins like 1-2 dates, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, or agave nectar if you love your smoothies on the sweet note.

    Equipment

    You'll need a high-power blender to make this metabolism-booster smoothie.

    Storage

    If you have any leftovers keep them in a glass airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. I recommend you consume it as quickly as possible so you can reap all those nutritional benefits in full measure. Alternatively, you can transfer it into a freezer-friendly container or ice cube tray and freeze it for up to 3 months.

    Top Tip

    Don't skip the addition of freshly queezed lemon juice. Not only will it add a nice zesty flavor to your smoothie but will also aid in the absorption of all the vitamins and minerals from the other fruits and veggies.

    This natural detox smoothie recipe is a great way to get a portion of your daily recommended serving of fruits and veggies.
