Green Tea, Lime & Avocado Smoothie

This is a refreshing and creamy twist on the green tea smoothie, which is often prepared with fruit.

Lime juice and freshly squeezed lemon add tangy pizzaz to this beautiful and nutrient-rich smoothie.

Green tea and kale provide antioxidants, while avocado contributes healthy fats, making this a satisfying afternoon treat or an excellent complement to breakfast.

This smoothie is also an ideal addition to a healthy detox routine!

Ingredients

• Flesh from 1 avocado

• 2 sweet apples, cored and roughly chopped

• 1/2 small zucchini, roughly chopped

• 1/2 cup chopped broccoli florets

• 1 small knob peeled ginger

• Roughly 1/4 cup loosely packed parsley

• 1/2 juiced lime

• 2 leaves kale

• 1 cup brewed and cooled green tea

• 2/3 cup almond milk (or water)

• 2 tsp chia seeds (optional)

Preparation

*You might like to stop and taste after blending in the lime and lemon, to see if the flavor suits your taste.

1. Add all ingredients to a high-powered food processor and blend until smooth and combined.

2. Pour into two jars and stir a teaspoon of chia seeds through each. Allow to sit at least half an hour (though overnight is best) before consuming. This will allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid.
