This is green. It tastes like mint and vanilla. It has the consistency of smooth soft-serve ice cream and is nutritious enough to eat for breakfast. It's one of those recipes that gives you a reason to get up in the morning.
Frozen bananas, frozen mango, and frozen spinach are blended with mint leaves, peppermint flavoring, and POW vanilla casein into something that looks festive green and tastes like a minty vanilla dream. Blue spirulina is optional – it adds no flavor but a beautiful color for those who want that little extra.
Serve in glasses or bowls if you have enough self-control not to eat it all directly from the blender. No guarantees.
