Surprise! It's good!
My daughter brought her Vitamin home from her time in the Air Force. We made this Alan's Going Greed drink this morning, can't believe how much I like it-even with the jalepeno! The lime, banana, and spinach are fab!

Best Green Smoothie Ever
I made this recipe for 200 colleagues (little 3 oz sample size) and over and over, heard, "That's way better than I thought it would be." I love the variety of flavors. I sometimes use frozen pineapple (bought fresh, cut and frozen by me), frozen bananas, and frozen grapes. Then I just add more water to get the appropriate smoothie-ness.

Nice recipe
Added kale instead of spinach and only a tiny bit of chili just in case, it made a pleasant drink. Will probably have again and maybe try a piece of ginger next time.

Love it
I replace the jalapeno pepper into bell pepper (taste less spicy) and added a whole lime with skin (more nutritious). Love this smoothie provide me enough veges while still taste great.
