Notes

This smoothie makes 3 large servings or 4 small servings.
To make this recipe higher in protein, you can add more hemp hearts to taste. This smoothie isn't made to be a filling breakfast. Instead, it's great enjoyed as a snack or as a "juice" with breakfast.
You can use kale instead of spinach if preferred. I would recommend starting with half of the suggested amount and increasing it to taste.
I used Gala apples. Use your favorite apples. There's no need to peel the apples, just remove the core.
If you don't like a strong ginger taste, start with 1/2 a tablespoon. You can also skip it if preferred.
