Naturally High Protein Green Smoothie
Prep Time
10 minutes
Prep Notes
Pumpkin seeds are a good source of protein (10g/1/2 cup) as are chia seeds (2g/tbsp). Spinach delivers 5 g/cup. You can easily reduce the ingredients in half to make a single serving, but sometimes it is nice to have leftovers for the next day.
Yields
2-3 servings

2 cups milk of choice. I like to use almond or coconut.

handful of kale
½ tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp cinnamon
