Replace afternoon coffee with this Green Energy Smoothie recipe

If you are like me and find yourself dragging in the afternoon, you might want to try this energizing green smoothie.

Plus, it’s packed with loads of feel-good fruits and veggies and a bit of the Homemade Protein Powder to help me feel full until dinner time.

1 cup fresh baby spinach

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 tablespoon agave nectar or honey

2 tablespoons Homemade Protein Powder
