Green Monster Smoothie - Recipe

Jump back on the healthy eating bandwagon with the colourful yet tasty Green Monster Smoothie Bowl.
Packed full of fruity goodness and super easy to make, smoothie bowls are most definitely the latest craze for those healthy eaters when it comes to getting your five a day!

What You'll Need

Green Smoothie
2-3 bananas (depending on your taste preference and preferred creaminess)
1 cup frozen peaches
½ cup greek yogurt (plain)
½ cup coconut milk
1 bunch of fresh kale
Blackberry Smoothie
1 cup frozen blackberries
1 cup frozen blueberries
½ cup greek yogurt (plain)
1 banana
½ cup coconut milk
Toppings
Flax Seed
Cacao Nibs
Almonds
Shredded Coconut (unsweetened)
Pumpkin Seeds
1 banana, sliced

Instructions

1. In a blender, combine all of the ingredients for the green smoothie. Blend until completely smooth (this should take about 5-10 minutes). TIP: I like to blend everything except for the ice, then once everything has come together add the ice in last to help break up any of the kale leaves and create a smoother base.
2. Transfer the smoothie to your bowls and set in the fridge.
3. Repeat this process for the blackberry smoothie (I simply rinsed out my blender first).
4. Add the blackberry smoothie to the top of half of each bowl, then top with your desired toppings.
