What's great about it
This is a power packed smoothie that I regularly enjoy for breakfast after a morning workout. It's light on the palate and easy to drink without weighing you down, so you're powered up and energised for a busy day ahead. I'm a huge fan of smoothies and if the right ingredients are used, they make a perfect meal and can fill you up for hours. I've used coconut water to make this recipe as it's extremely refreshing and helps to hydrate your body quickly. I often add a frozen banana to make my smoothies creamier and you can also use frozen pineapple chunks or mango that marries perfectly with matcha.
Ingredients
Serves 1
1 1/2 cups coconut water, the juice and flesh of 1 fresh young coconut or filtered water
2 tablespoons Protein Powder
1/2 - 1 teaspoon Organic Matcha Green Tea
1/2 cup ice
1/2 small frozen ripe banana
1/4 avocado
1 teaspoon tahini
Method
- Combine coconut water, protein powder, Matcha Green Tea, tahini, ice and banana.
- Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Serve immediately and enjoy.
Notes and Inspiration
Use 1/2 cup frozen pineapple or mango chunks in place of banana.
Add a handful baby spinach leaves.
Add 1 tablespoon chia seeds.
A small handful of raw cashews can also be used in place of the banana.
Add 1 teaspoon Everyday Greens.
