Start your day by getting in a serving of fruits and vegetables. It takes just five minutes to blend this protein smoothie made with spinach, Greek yogurt and orange. Pre-washed greens, such as baby spinach, do not need to be rinsed again at home. They are treated with chlorinated water after picking to ensure safety. Prep your ingredients the night before and store them in the refrigerator in a plastic zip-top freezer bag for even faster morning prep. This is the perfect smoothie for kids as they walk out the door to school or as you go out the door to work.
