A little sick this morning, I felt I needed a cosy smoothie to get me through the day. Opted for this vegan chai spiced version, I had tried and loved in Australia a few months ago. It is super balanced, blending fruits and veggies :), proteins and good fats. And the spices will bring a nice flavor and are said to have great anti inflammatory qualities ! I guess it could become a regular, as it turned out so good !! Sharing the recipe below so you can enjoy it too and share your comments :) Enjoy INGREDIENTS
1 frozen ripe banana cut in chunks
2/3 cup peeled cucumber
1/3 cup almond milk (unsweetened, better if home made :) you can switch for other plant based or even regular milk if you are not vegan)
1 tbsp almond butter (or hazelnut or PB)
1 tbsp flaxseed flour
1 tbsp vegan protein
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 to 1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ginger
1/8 to 1/4 clove (according to your taste)
1/4 tsp cardamon
Put everything in your high speed blender, adding the milk gradually up to the consistency you like. Drink it or have a smoothie bowl, adding some crunchy bites like raw cacao nibs, dried mulberries, dried apples or figs, .. ENJOY :)
