Serves 1 – 2/3 of a mug of coconut water (200ml) – 1 tablespoon of coconut yoghurt (I use a brand called Coyo) – A big handful of spinach – 1 ripe banana – 1 tablespoon of bee pollen (optional) Simply peel the banana then place everything into a blender and blend until smooth.

Woot woot!
We are so thrilled to present this little project that we have been working on lately! We have been turning fruit, berries, vegetables and liquids into smoothies practically every day for the past couple of years. Sometimes we make them for breakfast, other times for dessert, and always after a workout! We can’t think of a fresher, quicker and more delicious way to boost our bodies with energy. Since smoothies have become such a common meal for us, we have picked up some tricks and ideas on how to make them more interesting.
We have gathered 14 lip-smacking smoothie recipes into a recipe bundle that we just have released as an in-app purchase for our Green Kitchen app. We are of course bias but we feel pretty damn proud of these smoothies and hope they will give you new ideas and inspiration next time you are starting up the blender.
