Stay Awake

1 Thoroughly wash spinach or silver beet. If using silver beet, remove stalks.

2 Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.

3 Serve immediately in chilled glasses or jars.

HFG tip

For a thinner smoothie, add a couple of tablespoons of water.
If your blender isn’t the strongest, chop up the banana and strawberries first.
If you use larger strawberries, don’t panic if your smoothie turns slightly brown, it’s still good for you!
