This is a wonderful, healthy smoothie from Delicious Living mag. Here's what they say: "When you absolutely need breakfast to go, try this super-powered smoothie. Green tea's antioxidants help prevent cancers, blocked arteries, and even tooth decay; flax provides healthy omega-3 fats; and berries offer fiber and vitamin C-all served up in a tasty, easy-to-carry form."

MATCHA GREEN TEA SMOOTHIE OR ICED LATTE



Matcha Green Tea Smoothie or Iced Latte image

If you've read a newspaper or watched the news recently you've probably heard about all the health benefits of drinking Green Tea. It has tons of antioxidents and helps boost metabolism and helps you burn more fat and thus lose more weight. I enjoy drinking green tea and occasionally I enjoy a Starbucks Green Tea Frappuccino, or a Jamba Juice Matcha Smoothie Blast. This recipe is one I developed to be able to enjoy these smoothies at home. I think it tastes great and is really good for your health too. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Please note that this recipe does require premium matcha green tea powder. This is not just regular green tea leaves pulverized. This premium powder can be purchased at Japanese grocers, or online. I happen to purchase mine on that popular online auction site I'm sure you're familiar with. I use the "Usucha" (or thin) matcha green tea powder that comes straight from Kyoto, Japan. Feel free to contact me if you need help finding this tea and I can show you where to purchase it directly. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

GREEN BANANA AND PEANUT BUTTER SMOOTHIE



Green Banana and Peanut Butter Smoothie image

I saw a Vitamix® demo the other day. Then I realized my Waring Pro® blender at home was already fully capable of the same smoothie greatness, so I got inspired to cram more nutrients into my life by blending them up. The resulting mixture is happy and bright green, but it tastes more like bananas and peanut butter. I can't taste the spinach (though I love it). If it's too thick, use more milk or/and less yogurt and peanut butter. Feel free to substitute nuts for your favorites.

1/2 banana
1 teaspoon green tea leaves
1/2 cup ice (crushed)

Tips:

  • Choose the right leafy greens: Dark, leafy greens like spinach, kale, and romaine lettuce are packed with nutrients and antioxidants.
  • Use frozen fruit: Frozen fruit is just as nutritious as fresh fruit, and it's often more affordable. Plus, it helps keep your smoothie cold and refreshing.
  • Add a healthy fat: Healthy fats like avocado, nuts, and seeds help you absorb the nutrients in your smoothie and keep you feeling satisfied.
  • Don't add too much liquid: A good ratio of liquid to solids is 1:2. Too much liquid will make your smoothie watery and thin.
  • Blend until smooth: Use a high-powered blender to blend your smoothie until it's completely smooth. This will help you absorb the nutrients more easily.
