PEACH, BANANA AND STRAWBERRY SMOOTHIE

PEACH, BANANA AND STRAWBERRY SMOOTHIE

I whipped this up this morning with fruit I already had at home and the result was a blend of creamy delicious goodness!! You want to have all of your fruit and milks in the fridge beforehand so that they're chilled when you make your smoothie. This is a perfect summer smoothie and really filled me up! Makes 2 decent sized smoothies.

Ingredients

Almond Milk
Equal part Coconut Milk
1 Banana
1 large Peach
1/2 - 3/4 Punnet Strawberries (tops removed)
Tbsp Honey
Tbsp Chia Seeds


Method

Place all ingredients in to the Thermomix and blend for 40 seconds on Speed 9.


***Please note, I haven't stipulated how much milk to use as this is down to personal choice and how thick you like your smoothies. I used approx a cup of each milk and it made it nice and creamy!!***
