Healthy Green Breakfast Smoothie Recipe
Ingredients:
2 Bananas
a handful (1 cup) of Spinach leaves
3-4 drops of Vanilla essence/extract/paste (whatever floats your boat)
1 tbsp of plain yogurt/curd/milk
1/2 cup water (cold/room temperature) to help it blend (You can add more water later till it reaches the consistency you desire.)
Optional:
1inch grated ginger
1 tbsp Protein Powder
1tbsp Sugar/Honey/Stevia (I rely on the bananas and vanilla for the sweetness)
Equipment:
Mixer/Blender/Magic Bullet
Glass to pour into
Method:
Add all the ingredients to your blending jar/mixer and blend it till it turns into a smooth paste and add water till it reaches your desired consistency. Once it reaches the desired consistency, pour it into a glass and enjoy!
Tips:
1. Whenever my bananas go ripe all at the same time, all I do is peel them all and put them in the freezer. They stay really good that way for a couple of weeks at least and I can use them whenever I need them for a smoothie. I have tried this with strawberries too.
2. Cut off the spinach stalks if they are too thick as they might not blend too well. This step is optional though. You don't have to cut off the stalks if you are using baby spinach which is very tender.
3. Add Ginger and Yogurt to your smoothie. You will thank yourself 10-20 years later for that decision :)
This smoothie can be had pretty much anytime of the day. You can also fill up your tupperware bottle or sipper with this smoothie when late to work and can drink this on your way to work! Amazing right?
Let me know if you try this recipe.
