Hawaiian #Smoothie: #Green Smoothie of the Week

Sometimes it’s just nice to keep it simple and go back to basics with good sweet, fresh ripe fruit as the base for our green smoothies.

This Hawaiian smoothies naturally sweet so doesn’t need any additional sweeteners

Ingredients

• 1 Cups Non Dairy Milk (oat, rice, soya, almond, hemp, coconut drink or raw nut or seed milk)
• 1 Cup Kale, tightly packed or 2 cups loosely packed (Or Spinach or any other mild greens)
• 2 Cups Melon (Cantaloupe, Galia or honeydew)
• 3 Cups Pineapple
• 1 Banana (fresh or frozen)
• 1 Cup Oats (use raw oat groats if following a raw food diet or oatmeal if you don’t have a powerful blender)
• 2 Tablespoons Hemp Seeds (or ground flaxseeds if you don’t have a powerful blender.

Instructions

1. Blend the ingredients in the order listed.
2. Blend the ingredients a few at a time so that your blender can cope with the work, unless you’ve got a high powered blender, then you might be able to add them all in at once.
3. If it gets too thick, add more water as necessary.
4. If your blender has made the smoothie too warm, you can either cool it down in the fridge or freezer, or add some ice cubes or frozen fruit to it (You may need to add more water as this will thicken it further).
