I’ve been drinking green smoothies just about every day for the past couple of years. I’ve experimented with different berries, different plant-based milks, plenty of protein powders, and all types of flavors and sweeteners. But this one is the best. EVER. Made with nutrient-dense spinach, pumpkin puree, creamy pecan butter, and delicious coconut…this green smoothie is a delicious and satisfying nutritional powerhouse! This smoothie comes together in just a few minutes, making it great for a filling breakfast on-the-go. It’s also vegan and gluten-free!
