Healthy Shamrock Shake
My dog Lucy‘s two favorite foods in the world are yogurt and bananas. This healthy Shamrock Shake smoothie contains both! Yogurt is a great source of calcium and probiotics for dogs (just make sure it‘s plain with no added sugar). Then dog-friendly bananas provide potassium. The added mint gives her a nice burst of fresh breath, too!

Ingredients
- 3/4 cup plain almond milk
- 2 heaping tbsp plain Greek yogurt
- 2 frozen bananas
- 1 large handful of spinach
- 4 sprigs of mint
Instructions
- Prepare the Spinach: Wash the spinach thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris. You can chop it into smaller pieces to make blending easier.
- Freeze the Bananas: Peel the bananas and cut them into chunks before freezing. This step can be done ahead of time.
- Gather Mint: Pick 4 sprigs of fresh mint and wash them. Remove the leaves from the stems.
- Blend the Ingredients: In a blender, combine the almond milk, Greek yogurt, frozen banana chunks, spinach, and mint leaves.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend everything on high speed until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency. If the shake is too thick, you can add a little more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Taste and Adjust: Taste the shake to ensure it’s not too strong in flavor. If needed, you can add more almond milk or even a bit more banana to balance the flavors.
- Serve: Pour the shake into a bowl or a dog-safe cup and serve it to your dog. Make sure to serve it immediately, as the shake will start to thaw and lose its creamy texture.
- Store: If you have any leftovers, store them in the refrigerator. It’s best to consume within a day or two.
