My Raspberry Banana Smoothie |
One key to enjoying a smoothie is getting a nice, creamy consistency. That means you'll need a good blender that is able to pulverize the ingredients into a smooth consistency. It doesn't have to be a fancy, expensive blender. It just has to get the job done like this single serving blender I use.
Have I convinced you to give it a try? Let's make one now.
Donna's Raspberry Banana Smoothie
Print RecipeServes 1
- 1 cup raspberries, or mixed berries, fresh or frozen
- 1 medium ripe banana
- 1/4 cup baby spinach
- 2 teaspoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon almond butter
- 1 tablespoon ground flax seed
- 1 cup filtered water
Combine all of the ingredients in the bowl of your blender. If the fruit is frozen, let it thaw for 30 minutes, or so before blending. Otherwise, the consistency of the smoothie will be very thick.
Blend for 30-60 seconds, until the ingredients are well combined and very smooth.
