There are so many variations of a green smoothie recipe but are they all tasty? That is the question!

I find it challenging to consume all of the recommended fruits and vegetable servings into your daily diet. But starting off the morning with a green smoothie is a fabulous way to get started, not to mention a great energy boost to start the day.

You may prefer your smoothie with orange juice or milk but since I’m lactose-intolerant, I use almond milk. Try buying the unsweetened vanilla almond milk which gives a hint of vanilla flavour. The frozen banana also gives the smoothie a creamy texture. If the mixture becomes too thick, I’ll just add more ice cold water.

Since it was a lovely morning, I decided to make my tasty green smoothie in the Hamilton Beach Wave Station Express Dispensing Blender. These cute and colourful blenders add a pop of colour to your kitchen and also are cute for entertaining especially in the summer. The dispenser is a great idea for serve-yourself occasions like picnics and backyard BBQs, when you’re making a fruity drink or a healthy smoothie.

The Hamilton Beach Wave Station Express Dispensing Blender has nine blending functions and 700 watts of peak power, a DuraBlend jar which is break resistant, lightweight and dishwasher safe and the Wave~Action system forces the mixture down into the blade. It’s affordable too – right now, it’s only $14.94 at Walmart for limited time period.

Tasty Green Smoothie Recipe

1 frozen banana

1 1/2 cups frozen peaches, strawberries and mango

2 cups vanilla almond milk (unsweetened)

1 cup organic kale

Optional: throw in a spoonful of protein powder

Add all of the ingredients into the blender and allow a few minutes for your green smoothie to blend. Use the dispenser attachment so you can pour your green smoothie easily into glasses and serve!  Makes about 4 cups.
