Notes

  • This recipe makes about 1.5 servings - so either a pretty large smoothie or 2 smaller ones. 
  • Regular milk can be used instead of oat milk - or whatever milk you like best.
  • If histamine is an issue, substitute arugula for the spinach.
  • I used Bartlett pears but any sweet pear will do.
