Strawberry Mint Protein Smoothie

INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries
• 1 scoop vanilla flavored protein supplement**
• 1/8 tsp. mint extract or 5-6 fresh mint leaves
• 5 cups of ice- the more, the thicker the texture
• 8 oz water, coconut water, or unsweetened almond milk
• 2 handfuls of spinach

**if you are a chocolate mint lover, try chocolate protein powder instead. Use a dash of stevia or honey if your protein isn't already sweetened.

PREPARATION
Blend all of the ingredients together thoroughly. It can be stored in the fridge overnight, though stir before drinking the next day!

TIP
For a truly creamy texture, try adding 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt and reducing the protein powder by half.
