Notes

Banana: The riper your banana is, the sweeter the smoothie will be! 
Protein Powder: Feel free to use whatever flavor of protein powder you enjoy. I think that strawberry or chocolate work well with bananas, or you can just use plain instead. 
Spinach: Fresh spinach is best here since frozen is blanched and may not blend as nicely as fresh. You could absolutely use frozen, fresh (unblanched) spinach if you want.
