My first Green Monster
I’d read about these “Green Monster” smoothies on a number of blogs and last night, after an amazing hot yoga class, I had my first one.
I followed the classic Green Monster recipe from Oh She Glows, although I ommitted the ice cubes as I was relying on my mini food processor to be a blender.
The verdict? It is awfully green and thick but overall, I loved it!

- 1 ripe banana, preferably peeled + frozen
