Ingredients

• 100 ml water
• 1 tbsp linseed

Method

You’ll need: blender

1. Peel the banana and break it into pieces. Wash the strawberries and remove the green tops.
2. Put the banana, strawberries, coconut milk, water and linseed into the blender.
3. Purée everything finely until the smoothie looks creamy and even.
4. If the consistency is too thick for you, add another small splash of water and blend briefly again.
5. Taste briefly and blend again if needed so the linseed is well distributed.
6. Divide between glasses and serve cold straight away.

Good to know

A smoothie like this is often just the thing when it needs to be quick. Creamy, fresh and nicely satisfying without feeling heavy.

Swaps

Coconut milk → almond butter with water (usually a little more unsaturated fat) | linseed → chia seeds (similar fibre content) | banana → avocado (less sugar, but more fat and very creamy) | strawberries → raspberries (often more fibre)

Allergens

The recipe is vegan and easy to fit into everyday life; for small children it's better to use finely ground linseed, and during pregnancy the ingredients are generally fine in normal kitchen amounts as long as everything is prepared fresh and cleanly.
