Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh baby spinach packed
- 1.5 cups unsweetened almond milk or any plant-based milk
- 1 tbsp roasted chicory root powder pure and caffeine-free
- 1 frozen banana banana sliced for easier blending
- 0.5 medium avocado pitted and peeled

Notes
To make this ahead, blend everything except the ice and store in an airtight mason jar for up to 24 hours; shake well before drinking. If you find chicory root too bitter, start with 1/2 tablespoon and gradually increase. For a protein boost, add a scoop of vanilla collagen or pea protein powder.
