So I folded and invested in a Vitamix, and I love it. It really is a great machine, and I think, worth the money. I have been using almost everyday and have enjoyed everything that has come out of it.

I have been making this green smoothie every morning for breakfast. The almond butter and banana makes it filling and super yummy.  I have been trying to get Rowan to drink one of these smoothies, but because it is “GREEEEEN YUCKY! YUK!”, I have been totally out of luck in that department.

After reading about the benefits of Spirulina and Maca, I started adding a teaspoon each to the mix, but you don’t have to. Also, if your banana is not super ripe you can add a few dates to make it sweeter.

Add all of the ingredients to a blender and mix.
