Green Goodness

The holiday season has only just begun and I already feel like my comfort-food and cookie consumption has gotten out of hand. I sometimes wonder if we should take pointers from the bears, and just eat a ton at the holidays and then sleep/hibernate the rest of the winter away. At least then we would have an excuse for all the food, right?

Well, in an effort to put something somewhat healthy in my belly, I decided to make a yummy, scrummy green smoothie.

What you'll need:

•  A sliced, frozen banana (slice before freezing!)

• A tablespoon of sunbutter (or any other type of nut/seed butter)
  
  
  



• A cup or so of almond milk (regular, coconut, or soy works too!)
  
  
  
• A big heaping handful of baby spinach
  
  
  
• 3 ice cubes

To make: Place all ingredients in a blender and blend well. If you find yourself needing more liquid, add a little more milk. Be sure that the bananas and ice cubes are no longer chunks before you pour.

Once finished, you'll have yourself a nice big glass of green, creamy, sweet, goodness.

 
It may not be a warm cookie, but it is pretty darn tasty!
