Ingredients

Juice of 2 lemons
1-inch piece of fresh ginger
2 stalks of celery, leaves removed
½ medium avocado
1 cup fresh baby spinach leaves
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 scoop unflavored or vanilla protein powder (low-carb)

Directions

Peel and grate the fresh ginger.
Cut the celery stalks into smaller pieces for easier blending.
In a blender, combine the lemon juice, grated ginger, celery, avocado, spinach leaves, unsweetened almond milk, and protein powder.
Blend on high speed until all the ingredients are well combined and the smoothie reaches a creamy consistency. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a little more almond milk to adjust the consistency.
Taste the smoothie and adjust the flavors if needed. You can add more lemon juice for extra tanginess or more ginger for a stronger flavor.
Once the smoothie is blended to your desired consistency and taste, pour it into a glass.
Serve the Lemon Green Protein Smoothie immediately and enjoy!
