Spinach Shake Recipe

All credit for the recipe goes to Drew Manning. This sounds like a weird combination, but it actually tasted good and rather refreshing. Enough so where I foresee having this into my meal rotation for a very long time. 

1 large handful of spinach
1 scoop protein powder ( I like chocolate personally, vanilla does taste good too 
2 tablespoons of peanut butter
3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
1/2 banana 
3 large handfuls of ice

Blend everything together and you're done.

*Through trial and error, I've found sometimes the shake isn't liquid enough to even drink. I add 1c of water AFTER it's blended, and blend for another 30seconds. I'll keep adding more water as needed to reach a consistency I enjoy. 

** This can last in the fridge about 1 day at most. After that it turns to pure liquid. I generally make them around 8pm at night for the next day so my neighbors don't hear the blender at 4:30am.
