Kiwi Mint Smoothie
I’m crazy for this kiwi concoction. It’s got a sweet and tangy flavor, a fun and vibrant green color, and comes packed with potassium and fiber to nurture your heart.
Ingredients
- 2 large kiwi, diced (about 2/3 cup)
- ½ cup loosely packed spinach
- ¼ cup fresh mint, about 12 leaves
- ¼ avocado
- 1 frozen ripe banana, or 1 regular banana + 3 to 5 ice cubes
- 1¼ cups almond milk
- Juice of ¼ lime
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a blender and process until smooth and thick.
To make a Chia Pudding Parfait:
- Add 6 tablespoons of chia seeds to the smoothie recipe while blending.
- Then, pour into a bowl, cover and place in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours or overnight, to allow enough time for the chia seeds to gel and transform the smoothie into a thickened pudding consistency.
- Place the chia pudding in 2 glasses and layer with granola and sliced kiwi.
