This delicious smoothie recipe serves 2 people and only takes 5 minutes to prepare. 

Ingredients

• 1 large banana or 2 small, frozen
• 200ml chilled high protein milk
• 1 tbsp almond butter
• 1 tsp cocoa powder
• ½ tsp maple syrup
• 1 tsp LSA (see 'Tips' below)

Method

1. In a blender combine frozen banana, milk, almond butter, cocoa, maple syrup and LSA. 
2. Blend on high for 1 minute.
3. Pour into a glass and serve. For thickened drinks, strain and thicken using thickening powder to manufacturer’s instructions.

Tips: Ensure you strain before serving for pureed diet. Try to use frozen fruit for smoothies, it makes them icy cold and gives a thicker consistency. When freezing bananas, make sure that you peel them first, slice into thirds and place into a zip lock bag. This will make them easier to blend. LSA is a high protein mixture of ground linseed, sunflower seeds and almonds and is available in the health food section of the supermarket.
