My friend Elizabeth stopped by yesterday while I was in the process of making a yogurt smoothie…I had layered a banana, homemade yogurt, frozen blueberries, and spinach in the blender, and both she and her husband were like, “What are you making??”.
They left before I blended it up, so Elizabeth, here’s a picture of the finished product. It doesn’t look very spinach-y, does it?? And though it is hard to believe, it doesn’t taste spinach-y either.

mmm, looks awesome!
My favorite way to use of the remnants of the produce drawer! I’ve also swapped kale for the spinach, added a brown banana, or last sliver of avocado. Whatever is on hand.
I have to say, when I saw my name in the title of your post, I kinda freaked out for just a split second! What does she want to say to me in front of the whole world? Ah yes, the smoothie! It looks yummy. I thought it would look a little green. Too bad I didn’t stick around to have a taste! I totally want to try it!
Love the idea…especially for my oldest son who won’t go near anything green! lol
You are so wise and frugal!!!! That is an awesome smoothie!!! and healthy of course!!!
Just thought it was funny that the title of this post was Hey Elizabeth this is for you. Since I’m also Elizabeth I had to read on- and now I so want one of those. The picture is so good I’m practically salivating over it. I think I’ll be blending some up real soon- I know I have blueberries in the freezer.
I’m an Elizabeth, too, so had to check!
I’ve wasted raw baby spinach before – it never occurred to me to throw it into a smoothie, great idea!
