Deep, dark green, and mildly sweet, this healthy smoothie tastes like a treat. And since it makes more than one large smoothie, you can drink one and save the rest for later.
A little goes a long way
Don’t overdo the seaweed content in your smoothie; the seaweed flavor can easily overwhelm other ingredients. Just a little will complement honeydew, basil, and mint. Be careful when measuring and transferring because the dark pigment has a tendency to fly everywhere.

- 1/4 tsp spirulina
- 1/2 cup packed baby spinach
- 4 basil or mint leaves
