"Green" Smoothie: Midnight Orange

My most recent "Green" Smoothie creation.... I am naming it Midnight Orange! Whipped this little beauty up last night and it was deeeelicious. I am also including a modified version with some added protein and healthy fats (which will help you feel fuller longer). ENJOY!

I also found a great mix n'match green smoothie go to!

Midnight Orange Recipe
 
Directions:

1. Add banana, coconut water and spinach to blender. Blend on low for 1-2 minutes until well blended.
2. Add 1/2 cup blue berries, blend on low until well blended. Add remaining blue berries, blend on low for 1-2 minutes.
3. Add 1/2 an orange's juice
4. Add orange zest- I zested 1/2 an orange for a great citrus flavor. You can add as little and as much as you'd like to get the desired flavor.
5. Add about 1/2-3/4 crushed iced, and filtered water and blend on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add more or less water to help blend.

*Note, gradually adding the ingredients and blending between each step helps liquefy the spinach to ensure you don't get chunks in each sip.
