Drinks / Go the Green Smoothie
« on: July 11, 2009, 03:00:56 pm »
Does anyone else like green smoothies made with TM? It was one of the reasons I couldn't wait for my TM to arrive.
Most mornings I throw in 5-6 almonds,
a teaspoon of seeds (pumpkin, sunflower),
a tablespoon of oats,
a pinch of dulse flakes and a pinch of wakami flakes (for all the minerals)
Blend for 8-10secs on speed 9
chuck in banana (break it into pieces)
throw in a big handful of leafy greens - I love baby spinach, cos lettuce, silverbeet,
pour in a cup of filtered water or more depending on how thick you like your drink
Blend on speed 9 - 10 for 40+ seconds
sometimes I drizzle in a little honey or maple syrup if I want it sweet but most times I leave it out.
Pour into a huge glass and drink away.
My four Kids love this drink and it is one of my favourite morning starters. I used to just use banana, greens and water but now I have the Bimby and can blend the seeds and oats it tastes more like a meal than a drink.
Using fresh baby spinach gives an awesome light green colour. Try it and tell me what you think.
p.s this is my first recipe post so please forgive the layout. I'm sure I'll improve as I take note of how others have posted recipes.
Cheers!
