- 1 cup frozen banana chunks about 1 large banana
- 2 cups fresh spinach packed
- 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp pure maple syrup or honey, optional for sweetness
- 0.25 tsp ground cinnamon

Notes
Storage: This bowl is best enjoyed immediately. You can prep the smoothie base (without toppings) up to a few hours ahead—store it covered in the refrigerator; it will thicken. Stir before serving and add fresh toppings. Variations: For a protein boost, add a scoop of vanilla plant-based protein powder or Greek yogurt (if not vegan). Substitute mango or pineapple for the banana. Use any nuts or seeds you have for topping. For a thinner smoothie, add a splash more milk.
