This smoothie recipe is a twist on my favourite classic green smoothie of mango and spinach. This one, which makes about 3 pints, has a much “deeper” flavour with many layers and really is something quite special. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

1 bag spinach
1 cup pure water
1 ripe mango (medium sized)
1/4 ripe pineapple (medium sized)
3 Medjool dates
Small bunch of fresh coriander (cilantro)
3/4″ piece vanilla pod

Directions:

1) Simply process all ingredients in your normal blender or Vita-Mix until fully blended, and the vanilla is completely broken down.

2) Serve in a tall glass and enjoy!

RAW COACH’S TOP TIPS:

* Feel free to replace the passion fruit with any other if that’s not your thing. Banana blends well with just about any fruit, as does vanilla and sweetener.
