Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup cottage cheese
  • 1 cup spinach or kale
  • ½ banana frozen
  • ½ cup frozen pineapple
  • ½ cup almond milk or milk of choice

Instructions
 

  • Add all ingredients to a blender.

Notes

  • Greens Tip: Spinach offers a milder flavor than kale if you're new to green smoothies.
  • Texture Tip: For an extra-thick smoothie, use less milk or add a few ice cubes before blending.
  • Dairy-Free Option: Swap cottage cheese with a plant-based high-protein yogurt and use non-dairy milk.
