Equipment
- High powered blender
Ingredients
- 1 Frozen banana
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 20 g Blueberries
- 30 g Spinach
- 250 ml Whole milk
Instructions
- Put all the ingredients in to your blender.
- Blend until smooth.
Notes
- To get a super smooth smoothie, blend the liquid and greens first and then add the fruit and continue blending.
- Try to make the smoothie from fresh. However if you want to prep it in advance, then you can put everything except the liquid in a freezer bag and freeze until you need it.
- The general rule of making a green smoothie is 1 cup greens, 1 cup liquid and 2 cups of fruit.
- If you want your smoothie thinner, or if you want to save some calories, then you can use water instead of milk.
- Don't use ice cubes to keep the smoothie cold, as it will dilute it. Use frozen banana instead to keep it cool.
- To make this smoothie creamier and add some extra flavour, swap 50ml/0.25 cup of the milk for coconut milk. This will really help to thicken the smoothie too.
