Strawberry-Banana-Spinach Smoothie Mmmmm!

My sweet husband bought me a Ninja blender for Christmas.  I'm not really sure what to use it for other than milkshakes or smoothies so I thought I would share what I end up making with you all!

Strawberry-Banana-Spinach Smoothie



I should warn you - I didn't measure.  Just threw a bunch in of everything...

a few stalks of celery
a cup or so of the frozen berries
5 or so pieces of fresh pinapple
a frozen banana
handful of spinach
enough milk to get it smooth



I ended up adding way more milk than that picture above...



I love the color!  I'm not sold on the Ninja yet but I think I might have figured it out.  Anything with seeds needs to be on crush first then blend.  That seems to do better than just straight crush or blend.  This one tasted nice and fresh.
