Good recipe. If you're concerned about food safety/contamination and are serving it to young children you might want to blanch the spinach first.

I suppouse this is a good way to get someone to eat their greens. I thought it was pretty good and creative. But not a 5-star smoothie.

Wow! I had no idea you could put a vegetable in a smoothie without dramatically changing the taste. If it wasn't green, you wouldn't know it had spinach in it. I used plain yogurt to reduce the sugar. Lots of possibilities here, with different fruit variations.

I made this for my girls for breakfast. I substituted pineapple for the grapes and frozen spinach and they loved it. Great way to sneak in some greens! I've also been known to throw some sliced beets in their smoothies with some strawberries and other fruit. Makes a great funky color.

This smoothie was impeccable! a delicious glass of health. Was too sweet for me the first time, but perfect when plain yogurt was substituted for vanilla. also, tried adding extra spinach in another take, but the recipe proportions were already perfect as stated. thanks!

This is a really good smoothie! Its a little thick though so next time a might add a little juice or something. You cant taste the spinach at all. I really like this and plan on making it a lot now!

This is funny - the day before I came across this recipe, I was making my usual smoothie and saw I had some left over raw spinach (that was almost getting too dried out). I thought.. hmm.. should I add it? But then I figured it would be gross. So I found this and gave it a try. I can't rate it as is because I definitely changed mine - added strawberries which is why I did not end up with that electric green color, omit apples. Very very good and healthy.

My husband & I love this smoothie. It has become a morning staple at our house. My kids didn't like the banana in it (even though they like banana) so I added a whole apple and some extra grapes. Awesome!

Wow!! I never thought a spinach smoothie could taste so good! I have a feeling I'm going to be making this several times a week. I added 1T flax meal and 1/2 cup of ice to mine. Next time I might cut down on the grapes a little and try adding some soft tofu.

This drink was fantastic!!! I asked my husband if he wanted any and he said no but I got him to take a sip and of course he changed his mind very quickly. I preferred mine more cold so I added about 10 oz or about 1-1 1/2 cups of ice. Perfect.

Thanks for the idea to add spinach to a smoothie! I never would have thought of that on my own. Imade mine quite differently, so I can't really rate this recipe, but I definitely wanted to give you credit for the spinach factor. :o)

very good! i love the idea that i'm drinking spinach. i didn't have any grapes so i put in more apple. grapes would have added a nice sweetness. i will definately do that next time and make this again.

A unique and healthy shake! I used my standard smoothie mix of light vanilla yogurt and light vanilla soy milk. I did not have grapes and used a whole apple instead. My blender is not very powerful and the spinach was still visible in little pieces. You can definitely taste the spinach which I enjoyed.

I thought this was a joke when I first saw Godiva's pic. It was really good, not the best smoothie I've had but good. Really great on days when I eat fast food & don't get my fruits & veggies in. Going to experiment with my fav combo. Also, I need a new blender - mine had a hard time with this. Thanks!

WOW, WOW, WOW!! Who would have thought raw spinach could make a smoothie taste so good! Even if you DON'T like spinach you should try this! I followed the recipe except for the grapes. Since I didn't have the grapes I put in the entire PEELED apple in chunks. I didn't have vanilla flavored yogurt (too much sugar in that product) so I used plain yogurt and after tasting the recipe added 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed and 1 teaspoon organic agave (low glycemic sweetener that looks like honey). To make the smoothie colder I added some crushed ice (this does make it thinner). The smoothie will definitely become a BIG hit on this site!! I
