Cucumber, Avocado, Pineapple, Spinach, Greek Yogurt and Ice equals ...

Why did I think this would taste good together as a smoothie?



ON EDIT -- I sat here and stared at it for about 10 minutes. I just chugged it down. I think I need to run down to the men's room and scrub my tongue with my toothbrush. blech, double blech, triple blech!!!

And it was pretty good. It's the cucumber that is throwing it off.

Measurements are approximate: a cup plain greek yogurt, 1/2 cup coconut milk, a cup of FROZEN blueberries and strawberries, a banana, a cup of baby spinach.

This is my favorite. I don't use any ice since the berries are frozen - really good. If you make yours again and use a banana, it may taste better.
