Ingredients
- 2 Cups Water
- 1 medium mango (or 4 peaches or 1 cup of frozen mango chunks)
- 4 Apricots (or ½ a cup of dried apricots or 2 peaches)
- 1 Cup Spinach, tightly packed or 2 cups loosely packed. (Or Chard – not usually available in the UK unless you grow it or get a box scheme)OR if you run out of fresh greens, add 2 scoops of Amazing Green Powder for an extra healthy green boost.
- ¼ Cup Sunflower Seeds (or ground flaxseeds if you don’t have a powerful blender).
- 1 Cup Oats – Any type (If you don’t have a powerful blender and want the smoothie very smooth you can soak the oats for an hour before blending.)
Instructions
- Blend the ingredients in the order listed.
- Blend the ingredients a few at a time so that your blender can cope with the work, unless you’ve got a high powered blender, then you might be able to add them all in at once.
- If it gets too thick, add more water as necessary.
- If your blender has made the smoothie too warm, you can either cool it down in the fridge or freezer, or add some ice cubes or frozen fruit to it (You may need to add more water as this will thicken it further).
