Spinach And Apple Smoothie For Weight Loss Recipe Variations

There are many variations of this spinach apple smoothie recipe. Just because I have used a set of ingredients, doesn’t mean that they will work for everyone.

This is why I have left some recipe variations and ingredient substitutions for you here, so you can pick the best ingredients that suit your tastes and needs.

  • You can use any type of apple you like. I like using green apples, but this is totally up to you!
  • Instead of spinach, you can use kale or swiss chard, any leafy green that you have at home or like more is totally fine.
  • I used coconut water as the liquid smoothie base, but you can also use dairy-free milk, such as oat milk which will work well too!
  • You can also add green superfood powder for more powerful benefits. But this is optional.
  • If you don’t like bananas, replacing the banana with pineapple is a great substitute. Pineapple works very well with spinach apples.

There are so many good things about this green smoothie. It not only contains so many health benefits, it’s also really easy to make too.

To make this smoothie, you will need these ingredients:

  • Green Apple
  • Banana
  • Spinach
  • Freshly Minced Ginger
  • Coconut Water

Once you have gathered your ingredients and measured them carefully, add all of them to a blender. Add the leafy greens and apples first, since they are harder to break down.

Next, blend until smooth; for about 4-5 minutes.

This green smoothie is perfect with some ice or just on its own. Enjoy!
