Equipment
Blender
Ingredients
1 ½
cup
almond milk
½
banana
½
avocado
2
tablespoon
cacao powder
1
tablespoon
hemp seeds
½
teaspoon
Ceylon cinnamon
Handfull of fresh spinach
Instructions
Take the blender and add all ingredients. Note:
add wet ingredients first for easier blending.
Mix everything at high speed until you get a smooth texture.
If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more liquid – milk or water. Blend again until everything is well combined.
Taste the smoothie and add additional sweetener if the smoothie is not sweet enough to your taste.
Transfer the smoothie into a smoothie glass.
Add toppings (optional): I goji berries and cacao nibs. Be creative here and add toppings you like.
Serve and enjoy!
Notes
As a measure, I used a US cup (240ml). This makes 1 serving that serves 1 person as a full meal or 2 servings as a light meal.
Substitutions
You can use
any dairy or plant-based milk
here except coconut milk. Coconut milk won't work well here.
You can
substitute hemp seeds
with ground flax seeds or chia seeds.
You can substitute spinach with kale.
Smoothie variations
Make it without a banana
. Note: in this case, you will need to add extra sweetener.
Make it weight-loss friendly:
Make it without banana to cut calories.
Make it keto:
Omit banana. Add in 1 teaspoon MCT oil.
Store in a glass jar with a lid or shaker and keep refrigerated for up to one day.
