Now if you have read my last post on smoothies then you will know that I absolutely love them (if you haven't just click here)! I have put together another recipe for you that I really love and it has to be my favourite so far. It is full of goodness and is about 3 of your 5 a day, which is a bonus.
I just want to point out that I am not a health expert and this is just a smoothie that I like to have as a snack or desert- I have researched the benefits of most of the ingredients from google but you can research if you want more detail.
How many does this serve?
3
Ingredients:
- 3/4 of a tub of strawberry wholegrain yogurt
- (Optional)2 tea spoons of chia seeds (full of nutrients that benefit your brain and body)
- (Optional)1 tea spoon of coconut water powder (helps hydrate and balance electrolytes)
- 1 handful (large) of spinach (full of antioxidants and iron etc)
- 1 handful (large) of kale (among the most nutrient dense foods)
- 1 banana
- 1 large handful of raspberries
- 1 small handful of blueberries
- I didn't add this as mine was already sweet enough but you can if you want - 1 tea spoon of honey as a natural sweetener
- (if you want this for breakfast you can always add oats to make it more substantial)
How to:
- Add all ingredients together in a blender or smoothie maker and blend until smooth

Notes:
- If you are worried about the taste of spinach and kale overpowering the fruit, don't worry as you cant taste it at all with these measurements!
- Also, if you want to substitute or leave out any ingredients such as the coconut and chia then please do, they are not compulsory and do not really effect the taste, its just nutritional value! :)
I hope you like this mix!! If you try it please let me know what you think and do you have any favourite smoothie mixes??
Speak soon! :)
