If you’ve been following along on Instagram over the past few months, it’s no secret that I’ve become hooked on green smoothies in the morning! I love switching up the flavours, but this combination has become one of my favourites. I’m so excited to share it with you!

This strawberry pineapple and spinach smoothie is jam-packed with nutrients. It’s super creamy, filling, and satisfying, too. I find that this fruity smoothie keeps me full for about 4 hours!

As a dietitian, I try to ensure that my breakfast smoothies get in sources of healthy fats, protein, and fibre. This unique combination of nutrients helps to slow digestion and helps to stabilize your blood sugar.

This smoothie is also free of any added sugars, and is naturally sweet from fruit only.

PS – if you’re more in the mood for a nutty green smoothie (versus this fruity one) or a chocolatey one, be sure to check out my other favourite smoothie recipes below:

Ingredient Modifications + Swaps

I LOVE using the base of this recipe (so the spinach, avocado, yogurt, almond milk, seeds, and lime) and trying it with different fruit combinations (instead of strawberry + pineapple)!

You can get creative, but I’ve loved swapping in mangos, peaches, blueberries, and raspberries here, too.

Feel free to also experiment with different leafy greens and use any type of milk or milk alternatives that you’d like. Just aim for an unsweetened one if you can!

You also don’t need to use both chia and hemp seeds. If you have one or the other, that’s fine too!

Finally, feel free to add an extra boost of protein through an unflavoured protein powder or collagen. That said, Greek yogurt and the seeds also provide a fair amount of protein!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond milk, unsweetened (or other milk of choice)
  • 1 cup plain greek yogurt
  • 4 cups spinach
  • 1 cup pineapple, chopped (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup strawberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 3/4 cup avocado chunks (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 Tbsp hemp seeds
  • 2 Tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 lime, juice only
  • Approx. 10 leaves fresh mint
  • Ice (if needed – if using frozen fruits likely unnecessary!)
  • Optional: 2 scoops unflavoured collagen powder or protein powder (if additional protein desired)

Instructions

  • Place all ingredients into a high-speed blender, making sure to add the ingredients in the order of the recipe (this helps with blending).
  • Blend on high for about 2 minutes, or until smooth and creamy. If not using frozen fruits or avocado, you will likely need to add ice to get it cold enough.
  • Enjoy immediately or store for later!

Notes

*This smoothie will keep for about 1-2 days in the fridge. Simply pour into a jar with a lid and refrigerate. Separation is normal – just give the jar a good shake or put it in the blender again!
*You can freeze smoothies by pouring any extra into silicone ice cube trays or muffin tins and placing them in the freezer. Once frozen, you can pop out the smoothie “cubes” and store in them in a freezer-safe bag. Just thaw the cubes for a few hours or the night before you want the smoothie.
*This recipe can be modified slightly if needed. For instance, spinach can swap for kale (although it’ll change the taste slightly). Hemp and chia seeds can be used interchangeably, or you could add flax seeds as well! You can also swap the pineapple + strawberry for different fruits, like mango or peaches.
*If the smoothie is a bit too thick or doesn’t blend (it can vary depending on your blender), simply add a bit more nut milk or water until it reaches your desired consistency.
