Sweet Spinach, Vanilla, Pecan Smoothie


My Amazing Aunt Susan introduced me to a similar recipe just after I had Eden. I was amazed at the flavor and I had never before thought about adding pecans or dates to a smoothie. Since then, I have continued to add a little bit of my own flare and I will go through phases when I drink this for breakfast for weeks at a time. I know it might sound strange, maybe even look it, but the flavor is worth it. Just make sure to blend for a couple of minutes to prevent lingering chunks of pecans and dates.

Ingredients:
1 Cup Almond Milk

1/2 Cup Vanilla Protein Powder
1/2 Cup Greek Vanilla Pudding
5-6 Large Frozen Strawberries
2 T. Pecans
5-6 Dates
1 Cup Fresh Spinach Leaves
1/2 t. Honey
1/2 t. Ground Flax Seed (optional)
