The weather has warmed up a bit and I am craving smoothies and protein shakes. Banana Kiwi Smoothie is a delicious creamy beverage prepared by blending banana, kiwi, milk, chia seeds and honey. The addition of chia seeds to this drink gives you added fiber and nutrients. This banana kiwi smoothie is a meal in a glass, and really tasty, too!
With a base of frozen banana and fresh kiwi, play a great smoothie which is rich in fiber to keep our systems in good working order.
It can also help ensure to start the day with a dose of nutrition, which can be reassuring if they are sometimes reluctant to eat their fruits and veggies in other forms.
Banana Kiwi smoothie is slightly thick and naturally sweetened with honey, I didn't use sugar. It's a fantastic way to start your day. This yummy smoothie blend with kiwi's, bananas and all of your favorite fruits in a blender with low-fat yogurt or skim milk. Isn't it so yummy 😋😋
The trick to a tasty KIWI BANANA smoothie with chia seeds is to make sure that you use the skimmed milk or toned milk which has no cream and very light in weight, as compared to full cream milk. For my vegan friends, they can use soy milk or almond milk also. There is no need to soak chia seeds, use it as raw seeds. Even you can add yogurt instead of milk. Serve immediately!
This is sugar free smoothie, I have used honey into to it to work as a sweetener, if you don't like honey.. you can use sugar too or make it simple with no sweetener. and I must say it's a STRESS BUSTER smoothie.
Delicious smoothies are an awesome way to pack tons of nutrition into a delicious treat that you can anywhere. This smoothie will give you energy and keep you feeling full for hours.
