Tropical Green Smoothie

Bright, tropical, and sneakily green, the mango and pineapple do all the talking while the spinach quietly comes along.

Gina's tip
Add ¼ avocado for a richer, creamier texture and a little more staying power.
Coach's Note
Getting greens in doesn't have to taste like a chore. When it's this good, the healthy thing and the pleasurable thing are the same thing.
I hope this recipe finds a place in your kitchen as it has in mine. Enjoy!
