Smoothies can be made with any ingredients, and they can be thicker or thinner,
depending on your preference. This is our favourite*:
Ingredients:
3 spotty bananas (brown spotty bananas are sweetest and easiest to digest)
¾ cup coconut milk or water or a plant-based milk
1 tsp barley grass juice powder (optional, bought online)
1 cup frozen fruit – my favourite is a mango/peach/strawberry mix
1 tbsp hemp seeds to sprinkle on top (optional)
Throw everything into a blender and blend until smooth. It makes about 3 glasses full.
If your bananas are frozen you'll need to add more liquid, unless your other fruit is fresh - then it will balance out.
*The above recipe is a nice ratio to start with. Spotted bananas make a healthy, creamy and sweet base, then you can play with different milk flavours and frozen fruits/berries. Even add a handful of spinach or kale for extra nutrition, just make sure to blend it well!
