In my last post, I shared a recipe I had made with OrganicGirl Super Greens, the Super Greens Fiesta Salad, and now I’ll be sharing a another recipe I made with OrganicGirl Baby Spinach, the Tropical Spinach Smoothie. But first, I’ll tell you who the 5 Giveaway winners are from the OrganicGirl Greens giveaway on that salad post!
Congratulations to Jhuls (comment #7), Keshakeke (comment #10), Deal Housewife (comment #20), Table of Colors (comment #24), and Rachel (comment #33)! I’ll be emailing each of you to let you know in case you don’t happen to see this and will give your email to OrganicGirl so they can contact you about delivering your greens!
Thanks so much to all of you who participated in the giveaway! I wish you all could have won some greens, but as a consolation prize, here’s a recipe for a spinach smoothie that I think you’ll really like! This is a wonderful smoothie–it’s thick but not too thick. It’s sweet but not too sweet. It tastes great and it’s very, very healthy. And it’s an easy, tasty way to add more spinach to your diet.
TROPICAL SPINACH SMOOTHIE by NancyCreative, adapted from OrganicGirl

Now this smoothie sounds awesome! We had one at Jugo Juice on Tuesday and I wanted to figure out the recipe so I could make them at home. I think it’s fairly close to this one, but they might have been spinach? Love the sounds of this one! xx

Wow! This sounds great! Can’t wait to try it. Too bad my husband can’t. He’s allergic to bananas.
