I haven't posted a drink recipe in a while so, here is a recipe for a superfood smoothie that we've been enjoying lately. It's a recent variation of our more regular hemp milk green smoothies incorporating some of my favourite superfoods ~ Maca, Reishi and Mesquite.
You can use whatever type of nut milk you like but I find the flavour of the brazils give this smoothie a fuller flavour.
Brazil Nuts are the richest natural source of selenium and a good source of vitamin E. They also contain Palmitoleic acid and oleic acid which can help to lower 'bad cholesterol' levels and increase 'good cholesterol' levels.
INGREDIENTS
3c Brazil milk
2 Bananas
2t Maca
2t Mesquite
1/2t Reishi Powder
THE HOW TO...
Make your brazil milk ~ 1c brazil nuts : 4c water
Put all ingredients in blender with (strained) brazil milk and blend
If you have a sweet tooth, you may need to add a little extra sweetner of your choice. The bananas add enough sweetness for me but are probably not enough for most people.
