Thin Mint Smoothie
I’m not a huge St. Patty’s Day girl but one thing I can get on board with is all the mint recipes that seem to float around during this time of year. In hopes of not munching on a zillion Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies, I created this smoothie to help with the craving. Friends, it exceeded my expectations. The ingredients are 10 times (okay, maybe a million times) healthier than Thin Mint Cookies and filled to the brim of the glass with health benefits. Between the antioxidants in the cocoa powder to the collagen in the Vital Proteins, it’s a winner! See for yourself!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 frozen banana
- 1/4 cup baby spinach
- 1/4 cup mint leaves
- 1 Tbsp cocoa powder
- 2 pitted organic dates
- 1 scoop unflavored Vital Proteins
- 3 ice cubes
What to do:
Combine all ingredients into a blender and thoroughly blend until smooth. Serve and top with fresh mint!

This sounds delicious! I will have to make it tomorrow for breakfast but I will probably swap almond milk for coconut milk as I do not enjoy coconut milk.

This looks amazing. We have all these ingredients on hand already, so I’ll give this a try! I agree; the ingredients in some products are just terrible.
