Blueberry Smoothie with Hidden Nutrients

Some sneaky spinach and added fibre (in the form of chia or flax seeds) make this smoothie a great nutritional boost and a welcome addition to the grandkids afternoon tea options!

Prep Time: 5 mins | 2 Servings

Ingredients

• 1 cup frozen blueberries
• 1 banana, fresh or frozen
• 1 cup fresh or frozen spinach
• 2/3 cup milk
• 1/3 cup Greek yogurt (plain)
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
• 1 tbsp. honey
• ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
• 1 tbsp. chia seeds or ground flax seed

Instructions

1. Add all the ingredients to a blender and puree until smooth.
2. Pour into two glasses and enjoy!

Notes:

• If your bananas are turning brown, peel and pop them in a ziplock bag.
• Frozen fruit helps with texture and taste, as you don’t need to add ice.
• Bought too much spinach and find it’s going off? Split it up into individual ziplock bags, squeeze out the air, and freeze.
