Pineapple, Mango & Spinach Smoothie

You will love this fresh, healthy, green superfood smoothie. It is so nutritious, yummy, and full of colour and exotic flavours. I love to have these for breakfast on the go — it makes me feel happy because it's so colourful and nutritious. You can also experiment with different flavours, toppings and fruit.

Why you'll love this green smoothie

• Tropical and sweet – you can't taste the spinach!
• Packed with protein, fibre and greens.
• Ready in 5 minutes – a perfect breakfast on the go.
• Vegan and dairy-free with plant milk and plant protein.

Ingredients (makes 1 large smoothie)

• 160g (2/3 cup) almond milk (or any milk you like)
• 25g (1 tbsp) maple syrup (or honey, or a sugar-free alternative)
• 75g (1/2 cup) pineapple
• 75g (1/2 cup) mango
• 40g (1/4 cup) cucumber
• 60g (2 cups loosely packed) spinach
• 1 tbsp linseed/chia seeds
• 1 scoop (25g) protein powder (I used plant-based)

Directions

1. Add the milk to your blender first, then the spinach, cucumber, mango, pineapple, protein powder, linseeds and maple syrup. Start blending on low and slowly increase to high. It takes 40–60 seconds to get to the perfect smooth consistency.
2. Pour the smoothie into a glass or a pretty jug. Decorate with any topping you like – I added chia seeds and a strawberry. Enjoy it straight away!

Alla's tips

• Use frozen mango and pineapple for a thicker, colder smoothie without ice.
• Blend the spinach and milk first if your blender isn't very powerful, for a silky texture.
• Add half a banana for extra creaminess and sweetness.
• Prep freezer packs of fruit and spinach so breakfast takes 2 minutes.

Frequently asked questions

Can you taste the spinach?
Not really – the mango and pineapple are much stronger. It just turns the smoothie a beautiful green.

Can I skip the protein powder?
Yes – add Greek yogurt or a spoon of nut butter instead, or leave it out.

Can I use kale instead?
Yes – remove the stems and use a little less, as kale is stronger.

Can I make it ahead?
It's best fresh, but keeps in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Shake before drinking.
