Apple & Kiwi Green Smoothie
I loved that this green smoothie is so easy to prepare and that none of us could even tell or taste the spinach. The combination of green apple & kiwi gives the perfect tangy-sweet flavour to the creamy avocado & smooth yoghurt texture, making it the perfect green smoothie recipe for beginners and is the tastiest low sugar smoothie I've come across. This recipe serves 2 big glasses or 4 smaller ones.
Equipment
- Blender
- Chopping Board
- knife
Ingredients
- 1 Banana peeled & sliced
- 1 Green Apple Granny Smith
- 3 Kiwis peeled & sliced
- 2 cups Spinach washed & chopped
- 1 cup Natural Greek Yoghurt I used full fat
- 1 cup Water or Ice you can also use Milk
Optional Ingredients
- 1/2 Medium Avacado peeled & sliced
- 1 tsp Fresh Ginger peeled & grated
- 1/2 cup Fresh Mint washed & chopped
- 1/2 Fresh Lemon Juice
- 1 tbsp Organic Honey
Instructions
- Prepare your fruit & spinach by washing and chopping accordingly. I left the apple skin on for extra fibre
- Measure 1 full cup of Greek yoghurt
- Blend the spinach first with 1 cup of water or milk if you are using preprepared frozen fruit. But if you are using fresh-cut fruit as I have on this occasion and want it nice and cold, you can blend the spinach first with 1 cup of ice. My kids chose milk this time.
- Then add all the remaining ingredients and finish blending until smooth.
- Serve straight away. ;)
- If one day you make too much than you can handle, why not freeze the leftovers? My kids love to freeze this smoothie in popsicle moulds. They make a tasty cooling snack in the hot summer days.
