- 1 cup packed baby spinach (about 1 oz)
- 1 large kiwi, peeled and sliced
- 1 medium banana, sliced and frozen
- 1/4 cup coconut milk (or almond milk)

Instructions
- Slice bananas, peel kiwis, and measure out all ingredients. If using fresh fruit, freeze for at least 1 hour.
- In a blender, combine 1 cup frozen strawberries, 1 medium frozen banana, 1/4 cup coconut milk, and 1 tbsp honey/maple syrup (optional). Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Spoon the red layer into one side of a bowl, smoothing gently.
- Rinse blender. Add 1 cup packed baby spinach, 1 large kiwi, 1 medium frozen banana, 1/4 cup coconut milk, and 1 tbsp honey/maple syrup (optional). Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Spoon the green layer next to the red layer. Use a spatula or spoon to gently swirl for a marbled, festive effect.
- Add toppings: granola, pomegranate seeds, sliced strawberries, kiwi, nuts, coconut, and mint leaves as desired.
- Serve immediately while thick and vibrant.
Notes
Use frozen fruit for the thickest, creamiest texture. Blend each color separately for vibrant swirls. Taste before adding sweetener, as bananas can be very sweet. Chill your bowl before serving for extra coldness. Customize toppings for allergies or preferences. For nut-free, use seeds or extra coconut. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 24 hours; colors may blend but flavor remains delicious.
