Banana Basil Smoothie

Banana Basil Smoothie Raw Vegan Recipe

Wow, day 6 already of our 30 day raw vegan challenge! We are both bouncing off the walls with energy! We have made so many great recipes already, I have no idea how we will ever find the time to share them all. So, why not post one today? Here is a recipe I made for our breakfast on day 3; a delicious banana basil smoothie. Somehow these two flavors compliment each other perfectly to make this a very tasty way to kick off your day. This recipe takes 5 minutes to make and another 2 minutes to wash your blender off. If you are in a hurry, this is the breakfast for you! Here is how I made it:

Banana Basil Smoothie Raw Vegan Gluten Free Dairy Free Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 3 frozen bananas
  • 1 Tablespoon of fresh basil leaves
  • 1/2 Tablespoon of agave or rice syrup
  • 1 1/2 cup of water ( Add more water if you do not like thicker smoothies)

Add these ingredients to a high powered blender (we use a Vitamix) and blend until smooth. This recipe makes 1000 ml (almost 4 1/4 cups) of banana basil smoothie. Serve ice cold and enjoy!

Have you ever tried bananas combined with basil? It really is an amazing combination. I have been so eager and excited to make raw recipes and discover new combinations that really satisfy the taste buds as well as nutrition.
