Hidden Greens Smoothie

If you have trouble getting greens into your little ones, or even yourself, then this is the smoothie for you! Can't see or taste any greens and it also has lots of hidden extras :)
 
Ingredients (serves 2)
1 cup almond/low fat milk
2 cups spinach
1 frozen banana, sliced before frozen 
1.5-2 cups of blueberries (could also use strawberries)
3 tablespoons of chia seeds (white or black is fine)
A handful of almonds (optional)
Could also add 1-2 tablespoons of maca or mesquite powder, a few teaspoons of stevia to make it extra sweet for kiddies, or even spirulina powder for extra greens :)

Method
1. Place milk and spinach in blender and mix until all combined
2. Add nuts (if using) and chia seeds and mix until all smooth
3. Add all other ingredients and blend until smooth again! If the smoothie is too thick, you can add some cold water, or if its too watery and you want it a bit thicker, add a few more slices of frozen banana :)
