Servings: 1 smoothie
Ingredients
- 1 cup spinach
- 1 cup almond milk - see notes
- 1 medium frozen spotty banana - sliced or cut into 4 pieces
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- 1 –2 teaspoons maple syrup - optional
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
Garnish (optional):
- Drizzle of tahini
- Toasted sesame seeds
- Lemon zest
Instructions
- Place smoothie ingredients into a high powered blender and blitz on high power until the mixture is smooth and creamy, about 30 seconds.
- Pour into a glass (and if using garnish, drizzle with tahini, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and a little lemon zest) and serve immediately. Enjoy!
Notes
- Almond Milk: If the almond milk you're using has already been sweetened, feel free to reduce or to skip the maple syrup.
- Banana: Using frozen bananas will result in a thicker and colder smoothie. But if you don’t have any frozen, just add a couple of ice cubes.
- Thick Smoothie: For a thicker smoothie, add a few ice cubes to your high powered blender before blitzing everything up!
