Tropical Green Monster

(inspired by Skinnytaste)

I came home from a workout today and wondered to myself what to refuel with. I went through my list of refueling stand-bys in my head and yawned. Glass of milk? meh. Cereal? nah. Scrambled eggs? bleh.

And then it hit me! Why have I been spending hours pinning delicious things on pinterest if not to eventually make them? I knew I had pinned some tasty smoothies. All I had to do was find them...

Turns out you can combine coconut, fruit, and spinach and it's not gross at all! In fact, it's quite delicious. I used this, but modified it to fit with what I had in the house.
