Frequently Asked Questions
Will I taste the spinach?
Nope! The banana and vanilla whey mask the spinach flavor completely. It'll taste like a sweet banana smoothie with zero "green" taste.
Can I use kale instead of spinach?
Yes, but start with 1 cup as kale has a stronger flavor. Baby kale is milder than mature kale.
Why blend greens with liquid first?
This prevents chunks! Blending spinach with liquid first breaks it down completely before adding frozen ingredients.
