Hi.

I’m Jackie, a stay at home vegan mommy of one amazing little girl. My daughter, Zoey, is three years old, a huge Disney aficionado and Minnie Mouse super fan. She’s also the most amazing little helper in the kitchen that a mother could ask for, and so she is… my Minnie Chef.

Spinach is the star in this smoothie and it gives this drink a deep, rich green color and velvety texture.  This smoothie is less sweet than a traditional fruit smoothie—the sweetness from the pineapple is balanced out by the spinach and cucumber—but it is very refreshing and makes for a great afternoon pick-me-up snack.

Serves 2

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups water or coconut water
  • 2 cups packed spinach
  • 1 large cucumber, peeled and seeded
  • 1 ½ cups frozen pineapple chunks

Directions: Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.
