Ingredients

  • 4 ice cubes
  • 1 frozen banana
  • 4 handfuls of spinach
  • 4 tablespoons of dry oatmeal
  • 3 tablespoons pepitas
  • 2 cups of milk
  • 1 tablespoon of honey
  • 4 dates

Instructions

  1. Add ice and frozen banana to the bottom of your NutriBullet cup (if using a traditional blender add ingredients in reverse for the best blending)
  2. Add 4 big handfuls of spinach squeeze and push them into the cup if you need to to make it fit
  3. Add your dry oatmeal and pepitas
  4. Pour the two cups of milk slowly so it doesn't splash over the sides
  5. I have the 4 dates
  6. Add the honey spiraling it from the center out to the sides it's important that the honey goes on top for a NutriBullet type blender or on the bottom for a traditional you want the honey to be where the blades are so that it covers the blades as it gets blended through everything else
  7. Refusing a NutriBullet blend two times on a regular bullet blend on high until mixed well
  8. For best taste and best results overall add smoothie back to the freezer now that it's complete for 1 hour to get extra cold but still not refrozen. then enjoy!
