This was an amazing smoothie: refreshing, delicious and it filled me up for the morning! It’s also quite detoxing as it’s not filled with heavy carbohydrates but instead – represented through the name – boosted with super greens! This is a quick go-to recipe and to make it you need:
- Juice from 1/2 lime
- Fresh ginger wedge (size of thumb nail, de-skinned)
- 1/3 cucumber
- 1/2 banana, fresh or frozen
- 10g cashew nuts
- Handful of spinach
- 50ml coconut water
- 150ml preferred milk – I used soya milk but almond, hemp or oat milk will work too
- Pinch of nutmeg, literally the tip of a teaspoon
- Ice to chill (this also made mine less thick so substitute for some cold water if you don’t add any)
Simply blend it all together until it’s totally smooth, then transfer it into a large glass and enjoy! It’s bursting with healthy ingredients to make your body glow inside and out, and a great start to the week if you’ve indulged a little too much over the weekend!
