I’ve been
experimenting with smoothies for a few months now, but until now I’ve never
remembered to scribble down what I put in the blender. My smoothies typically
start with a handful of fruit, some vegetables or green juice followed, rice
milk or coconut milk and maybe some whole oats, chia seeds or flax meal. I
typically make dairy free smoothies. Here’s one with high antioxidants, I
whizzed up just before work this morning. If you need an extra boost add a
little matcha green tea powder to this recipe.
