SWEET SPINACH SMOOTHIE (MY WAY)

Sweet Spinach Smoothie (My Way) image

So we just went on a diet to get off these last 5 pounds and I made this for breakfast this morning and wow was it yummy and healthy! Definitely use a light yogurt because it is more runny and easier to blend; if you use a full fat or Greek yogurt, you will need to add more water to get the blender to work (unless you are lucky enough to have a powerful professional blender). My calculation of calories for this smoothie is only 260 (80 for yogurt, 30 for grapes, 20 for spinach, 5 for lime juice, and 125 for avocado).
