Super Food Power
According to the food pyramid developed by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), we need
2-3 servings of dairy per day,
2-3 servings of fruits per day
3-5 servings of vegetables per day
6-11 servings of bread/grains per day
(an additional serving is added for women who are pregnant or breast feeding)*
This Super Food Recipe incorporates 5 of the daily nutritional serving requirements.
- - 1 serving of dairy (yogurt)
- - 2 servings of fruit (banana & berries)
- - 1 serving of vegetables (spinach)
- - 1 serving of protein (almond milk)
Note: One tablespoon of Flax Seed contains about 1.8 grams of plant Omega 3's as well as fiber.

Prep Time
Use Organic Ingredients
- 1 cup Mixed Berries, frozen
- 1 ripe Banana
- 1 sliced Apple, or (1/2 cup applesauce)
- 1 cup Baby Spinach
- 1 Tablespoon Honey to taste
- 1/2 cup Almond Milk
- 1 Tablespoon Flax Seeds
- 1 cup Non Fat Yogurt
- 1 Tablespoon Spirulina Powder
Home Made Super Food
- Break up your banana into chunks & toss them into your large Nutri-Bullet cup.
- Add one cup of organic mixed berries. (fresh or frozen)
- I usually grab a handful of spinach leaves and toss them in, but if you like to use measurements, it should be a full cup.
- Pour in 1 cup Almond Milk (Soy, Coconut and Rice Milk also taste amazing).
- Add 1 cup of non-fat yogurt (I use plain)
- On the side of your Nutri Bullet cup, there will be a "MAX FILL LINE" ... You can use filtered water, additional Almond Milk or even green tea to the max fill line after dry ingredients are added.
- Put the blade on and blend until creamy. Remove blade and add the last 3 ingredients, Honey, Flax Seeds and Spirulina. (I do this in 2 separate steps so that the honey doesn't get stuck to the side of the cup during blending. This extra blend gives me optimal incorporation of all ingredients).
- Serve and Enjoy!
These are the ingredients that I used in this recipe.
Ripe Bananas are Best
Perfect for Ripe Bananas!
I like to use bananas that are ripe, slightly brown, because they add quite a bit of extra sweetness to the smoothie. The ripe banana in addition to the bit of honey is perfect and effectively eliminates the need to add any sugar.
