Healthy Green Dream Smoothie Recipe packed with Vitamins

This Healthy Green Dream Smoothie is packed with vitamin B3, niacin and folic acid. It makes 200ml but I doubled it to make enough for 2 people. A smoothie is a convenient way to boost your intake of fruits, vegetables and other fiber rich foods. 

What is a Smoothie?

Smoothies are thick, creamy beverages usually blended from puréed fruits, vegetables, juices, yogurt, nuts, seeds, and/or dairy or nondairy milk. 

The most basic smoothie starts with two essential ingredients — a base and a liquid. From there, you can combine ingredients to your liking. Many smoothies include frozen produce or ice cubes to give the final product the cool, icy consistency of a milkshake. However, their flavour profiles vary tremendously depending on the ingredients.

Types of Smoothies

Most smoothies can be classified into one or two of the following categories — though there’s significant overlap between them:

1. Fruit smoothies. As the name implies, this kind of smoothie usually features one or more types of fruit blended with fruit juice, water, milk, or ice cream
2. Green smoothies. Green smoothies pack leafy green vegetables and fruit blended with water, juice, or milk. They tend to be heavier in veggies than regular smoothies, though they often include a little fruit for sweetness.
3. Protein smoothies. Protein smoothies usually start with one fruit or vegetable and a liquid, as well as a major protein source like Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, silken tofu, or protein powder.

Certain smoothies contain large quantities of added sugar, which can reduce the drink’s overall nutrient density. Excess added sugar intake may increase your risk of disease.

The Healthy Green Dream Smoothie does not come under the specific ‘types’  of smoothies – it’s a cross between a fruit and vegetable smoothie. Best of both worlds, having a nice balance of carbs, fiber, protein and healthy fats. Wholesome goodness of both fruit and vegetables.
