Blood Orange Green Smoothie
Why not shake up your smoothie with this nutrient-packed treat when blood oranges are in season?
Ingredients
- 2 small ripe bananas
- 2 organic blood oranges, juiced (~1/2 cup or 120 ml)
- 3/4 cup (180 ml) light coconut milk (carton beverage or canned)
- 2-3 Tbsp (30-45 ml) fresh lime juice (for tartness // add to taste)
- 2 big handfuls (~60 g) fresh or frozen greens (organic kale + spinach are best)
- Your favourite protein powder, if desired
Directions
- Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until creamy and smooth, scraping down sides as needed.
- Add more liquid if it has trouble blending. Add ice to thicken. Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding more banana to sweeten, or lime juice for tartness.
- Best when fresh, though leftovers keep well-covered in the refrigerator up to 2 days.
