Tips
Banana flavour goes well with just about any other fruit or vegetable in a smoothie. It’s a great way to scout around in the back of the fridge to see what’s there for you to whizz up.
Whatever type of smoothie you make, leaving the skin on the banana adds flavour, texture and many more nutrients, such as fibre, calcium, and protein.
Add some porridge oats to thicken things up and add even more goodness.
