Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 ripe kiwis
- 1 banana
- 1 cup spinach
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional)
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 2 ripe kiwis, 1 banana, 1 cup of fresh spinach, 1 cup of almond milk, 1 tablespoon of chia seeds, and 1 tablespoon of maple syrup (if you prefer added sweetness).
- Wash the spinach thoroughly under cold running water to remove any dirt or impurities. Shake off excess water or use a salad spinner to dry the leaves gently.
- Peel the kiwis using a knife or a vegetable peeler. Cut the kiwis into quarters to make them easier to blend.
- Peel the banana and break it into smaller pieces. This will help it blend more smoothly.
- In a blender, combine the quartered kiwis, banana pieces, fresh spinach, almond milk, chia seeds, and maple syrup (if using).
- Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high speed until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth. This should take about 30-60 seconds.
- If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, you can add a little more almond milk and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
- Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding more maple syrup, blending again to mix.
- Once blended to your satisfaction, pour the smoothie into two glasses.
- For an extra touch, you can garnish the smoothies with a sprinkle of chia seeds or a slice of kiwi on the rim of the glass.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Kiwi Super Green Smoothie!
Tips
- • For the creamiest texture, use ripe, slightly soft bananas and kiwis • Freeze your banana beforehand for an extra thick, frosty consistency • Use organic spinach for maximum nutrient retention • If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add a Medjool date instead of maple syrup • Experiment with adding a small piece of fresh ginger for a metabolism-boosting kick • Always blend your greens first with liquid to ensure a smoother blend • For a protein boost, consider adding a scoop of plant-based protein powder • Use a high-speed blender for the smoothest possible result
