I love fruit smoothies. Here’s how I make one and the ingredients I use. I always use bananas and then add whatever frozen fruit I have. You can use non-frozen fruit to but I just happen to have a lot of frozen fruit around. Usually I just use bananas, strawberries, milk, water and hemp seeds.
- 2 bananas
- frozen strawberries
- frozen blackberries
- frozen blueberries
- frozen spinach or kale
- frozen mangoes
- hemp or flax seeds
- almonds
- honey
- water
- milk or juice or tea
- spices (cayenne, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves)
- put 2 bananas in
- loosely fill blender with frozen fruit almost to level of the top of the bananas
- fill 1/2 up to the top of the bananas with milk or juice
- fill almost to the top of the bananas with water
- add hemp/flax seeds and maybe some almonds
2018 Update
I stopped using hemp and flax seeds, but not really for any particular reason. I’ve started to use dried vegetable powder (with cacao) a lot time. I think it may help and it probably doesn’t hurt. Plus I like the chocolate flavor!
