Ingredients

PANTONE INSPIRED BANANA WALNUT GREEN SMOOTHIE BOWL

  • 1 1/2 cups frozen banana
  • 1/3 cup walnuts
  • 1 cup spinach
  • 1 cup unsweetened nut milk I used cashew
  • 4 medjool dates
  • Seeds from 1 vanilla pod or 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract

OPTIONAL GARNISH

  • Banana slices
  • Walnuts
  • Hemp hearts
  • Baby spinach leaves
  • Edible flower petals
  • Whatever else you like!

Instructions

  1. If you don't have frozen bananas on hand, you'll need to make some! Frozen bananas are absolutely essential for a thick, creamy smoothie bowl (trust me -- you'll thank me later!).  To make them, simply peel and slice your bananas, then scoop them into plastic bags and freeze for at least 4 hours.
  2. Slice your vanilla pod down the centre lengthwise and scrape seeds into your Vitamix (or similar) along with frozen banana, walnuts, spinach, nut milk and medjool dates. If you're not using fresh vanilla seeds, simply add your pure vanilla extract to the blender along with the other ingredients.
  3. Blend until smooth.
  4. Pour the Pantone Inspired Banana Walnut Green Smoothie into a serving bowl and garnish with fresh toppings. Some of my favourites include any of the ingredients featured in the bowl, along with hemp hearts, berries, shredded coconut and edible flower petals.
  5. Serve immediately, enjoying before it thaws!
