Perfecting the spinach banana milk shake

[thelerner]

Yoda turned me on to these. I've been working on perfecting a recipie. Todays is very good. It is:

 

Frozen Spinach - 2 or 3 handfuls the organic from traders joes works well

Kefir yogurt plain - I suppose any plain or vanilla yogurt would work, 2 or 3 ounces

milk - I use cow 2%, any 'milk' with some fat in it, 2 or 3 ounces

half a banana

half an avocado - optional but highly recommended, makes it smooth and luscious, decreases spinachiness

dash of vanilla - optional but increases the depth of flavor

 

Its thick so start the blender on a low setting to avoid air pockets. Add water to thin it out a bit. Add some ice if your spinach isn't frozen. Blend for a minute or two to knock out lumps.

 

Enjoy it really tastes great
