take-Away Green Smoothie

I can't recommend enough this amazingly looking smoothie. Perfect for a delicious breakfast, as a lunch starter or an afternoon snack. I have it every day and I promise, you won't regret including it into your daily routine. It's easy to make whether you are smoothie beginner or a pro. This smoothie is quick to make, and it is naturally sweetened with fruit ( no added sugar!) and loaded with greens, antioxidant properties found in goji berries, raw cacao nibs, strawberries and blueberries. I call it my great fast food, which will keep anyone away from grabbing a junk food. What's most important though it will keep you satisfied, nourished and full of energy.

For one bowl (approximately 500 ml) you will need:

• 2 medium, very ripe bananas

• 1 handful of baby spinach

• 2 celery sticks

• 150 ml water

• 1 handful of fresh parsley leaves

• 3 pitted dates, for natural sweetness

• 1 tsp organic spirulina powder (optional)

• 1 tbsp goji berries, for garnish

• 1 tbsp raw cacao nibs, for garnish

• 1 handful of fresh berries of your choice, for garnish

• Green apple slices and kiwi slices, for garnish

Method

1. Wash the baby spinach and parsley thoroughly.

2. Peel the bananas and cut them into smaller pieces.

3. Add the bananas, spinach, celery, parsley, dates, water and spirulina (if using) to a high-speed blender.

4. Blend until smooth and creamy.

5. Pour into a bowl and garnish with cacao nibs, goji berries and fresh fruit.

💚 Tips

• Spirulina is a nutrient-dense algae that provides plant-based protein, amino acids and various vitamins, minerals and antioxidant compounds.

• It can be a nice addition to smoothies or vegetable juices, but it is optional — you can enjoy this smoothie bowl without it too.

• If you prefer a thicker smoothie bowl, use a little less water and add it gradually until you reach your preferred consistency.
