Raspberry, Blueberry & Banana Smoothie
The flavours for a fruit smoothie are nearly limitless. But naturally sweet raspberries and blueberries make a delicious combination. Add a banana – a great thickener for smoothies – you could use fresh or frozen. Add some variety and try blackberries or strawberries.
Ingredients
1 cups of frozen unsweetened raspberries
1 cup of frozen unsweetened blueberries
1 large banana, peeled and cut into sections
1 cup of Hemp & Co hemp milk
½ cup apple juice
½ cup soft silken tofu (I had to hunt for this. Finally found some at Tai Ping in Auckland)
1 Tblsp Hemp & Co Original hemp seed oil
Method
Place all ingredients into a blender or food processor and process until smooth. Pour into chilled glasses and serve.
Note: Leftovers will keep in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Be sure to use silken tofu. Water-packed tofu is too firm to make a smooth blend.
Yield: 2 ½ cups (3 servings); Serving: ¾ cup
General: This liquid refreshment made using hemp milk is a complete protein source and has more fibre than many breakfast cereals and small amounts of many other nutrients everything from vit E to potassium to magnesium.
