Super Smoothie

This is my basic every day smoothie recipe for now. I generally keep all the ingredients on hand at all times. Sometimes I'll add leftover fruit not listed if it's available. For example, during peach season I had an abundance of peaches, froze some and added them. One day I added orange slices and decided I loved the addition of citrus as it tended to soften the flavors of some of the stronger ingredients. Since it's summer and I have a big garden, I always have lots of grape and cherry tomatoes on hand. I throw a handful of the small tomatoes into the smoothie. I buy a large bag of frozen wild organic blueberries, walnuts, and matcha powder at Costco. I buy the fruit, flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, goji berries, and chia seeds at Central Market or a local grocery store. For the hemp seeds, I have only been able to find them at Whole Foods. I ordered the Amla Powder on Amazon.

Recipe Instructions

Next, follow the steps to finalize your dish and finally be able to enjoy it!

  1. I use a Vitamix blender. Place the soy milk, banana, and 5 or 6 ice cubes in the blender. Add the rest of the ingredients. Start on low power and increase gradually as ingredients combine. Once combined well, turn the speed to high. If the mixture is too thick, add a couple tablespoons of water. Pour into a 32 ounce container and drink right away.
