Have that St. Patrick’s Day favorite milkshake the healthy way, with all the mint flavor and creamy texture, but none of the guilt with my Shamrock Shake Green Smoothie!
Ingredients
- 1 frozen, really ripe banana
- 1 cup milk of choice
- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt or cottage cheese
- ½ cup baby spinach, kale or other dark, leafy green of your choice)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon mint extract
- ice cubes – I used 4 regular-sized ones. This was probably about ¾ cup. Adjust accordingly based on the size of your ice cubes and how icy you want it.
- Optional – you can add a bit of sugar, honey, stevia, etc., if needed, depending on how ripe and sweet your banana is
Directions
- Put all ingredients into a blender, and blend until smooth.

Enjoy!
