Healthy Skin Smoothie

This smoothie is a real burst of antioxidants, the ingredients in it are specially designed to take care of your skin for a more smoother, renewed appearance. Blueberries, baobab, and honey are full of detoxifying properties, while the collagen provides the necessary protein needed for skin regeneration. In addition, flax seed oil and coconut oil supply your skin with lots of vitamin E, to properly hydrate your skin!

Maca Magic Smoothie 

This is so delicious, unique and magical. It’s my new best friend…

It also contains maca, which is an indigenous food, grown in Peru (I will be writing more about indigenous foods in the future!)

1 can coconut milk (with high percentage of coconut-check the ingredients)

1 tbsp maca powder

1 tbsp honey

1 banana

water to achieve desired consistency

Blend all in a blender and enjoyyyy…

Banana and Date Smoothie 

Ingredients:

-1 banana

-7 dates (soaked in milk overnight)

-1/4 teaspoon cocoa powder (so it doesn’t over power the flavour)

-milk or coconut milk to achieve desired consistency

-1.5 tsp honey

Purple Passion Smoochie

If you want a smoothie better tasting than a strawberry smoothie, this is it! Although it has spinach and beetroot, it’s almost impossible to taste them! 100g of blueberries, 4 tablespoons of Greek yoghurt, 2 tablespoons of vanilla ice cream, 1 can of coconut milk, 2 tablespoons of honey, 1 small avocado, 1 small beetroot, a small handful of spinach and at least 200 ml of milk to get your desired consistency. Start off with blending the beetroot and spinach along with 2 tablespoons of Greek yoghurt, and gradually add the rest of the ingredients in and blend well so it’s super smooth! Enjoy!

Breakfast Smoothie 

-2 bananas

-1 scoop/serving of protein powder

-1/2 cup oats

-4 tbsp Greek yoghurt

-milk to achieve desired consistency

-1 tsp coconut oil (optional)

– Add your favourite berries!

Super Healthy Multi-coloured Layered Smoothie

I made the green part using avocado, kiwi, wheatgrass powder, honey and a little bit of water so it’s thick, and the orange part using persimmons, clementines, banana, honey, and a little more water so it’s less thick than the first layer. I stored both the different colours in two separate cups for 15 minutes in the freezer. Then I got a large cup, and carefully poured the thicker layer (green), followed by the second layer (orange). After I drank a bit of the orange colour, I added beetroot juice to see if it gets prettier with 3 colours!

Blend together the following ingredients for a super-yummy, greenie smoothie:

– 2 Bananas

– 1 Avocado

– 2 Kiwis

– 1 Tbsp Honey

– 1 Tsp Wheatgrass Powder (available in any health store)

– Water for desired consistency

The Monster

Avocado, cucumber, spirulina powder, hemp protein powder… It took me a long 20 minutes to finish it (especially that I unintentionally made 2 servings)…
