Another Smoothie Creation

The green monster smoothie has inspired me to try my hand at making more smoothies but still sticking with the green veggie concept. This past weekend I picked up some plain soy milk instead of vanilla and frozen pineapple chunks.
Here are the ingredients:

1 cup soy milk



4 ice cubes(from an ice tray)


8 frozen pineapple chunks


1/2 of a banana


1/2 cup spinach

The result was still green(see below) but it had a different taste. I enjoyed it and will make it again adding another 1/2 cup of spinach. I still want to get as much green veggies as possible in yeah know:-)

Green Monster Smoothie?

I have heard so much about this smoothie that I decided I was going to get the ingredients this weekend and try the darn thing.
Welllll my green monster smoothie was more like a purple moster smoothie(see pic below).
I have to say that I only used half of each ingredient listed becasue my hubbie was already gone for the morning and I didn't want to end up with too much.
The smoothie was quite tasty. I didn't even taste a hint of the spinach which is what I most afraid of when setting out on this adventure. I am going to try again tomorrow without cutting the ingredients in half and see how I make out.

Here's the recipe:

2 cups spinach

1 cup silk vanilla light soy milk

1/2 cup blue berries,raw

1 banana

1/2 cup ice

I have seen different variations of this recipe so don't be surprised if you see it elsewhere changed up a little.
