Blueberry Smoothie

I'm in total smoothie mode right now. This morning I decided to mix it up by adding blueberries and using peanut butter instead of almond butter (see Green Monster Smoothie). It was berry-tastic. I didn't add too much peanut butter because I didn't want the nutty flavor to overpower everything else. I ended up with subtle hints of peanut butter, which was just right. 
Ingredients (serves 2, makes ~20 oz)
3/4 c skim milk
1/2 c fage 0%
1 tbsp flax seed
1 frozen banana, sliced*
1/2 c blueberries
1/2 tbsp peanut butter
3 handfuls of baby spinach

*Tip: Slice the banana in pieces before freezing. 

In a blender, combine all ingredients. Blend until smooth.
Soo good!

You get the idea, right? Some combo of:
milk
greek yogurt
flax seed
frozen fruit
nut butter (optional)
spinach
