Ingredients
Fruits & Vegetables
- 3/4 cup chopped pear, skin on
- 2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
- 3/4 cup fresh spinach
Liquids
- 3/4 cup oat milk
Seeds & Sweeteners
- 2 teaspoons hemp or chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
Others
- 1 cup ice
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a blender, add the chopped pear, freshly grated ginger, fresh spinach, oat milk, and hemp or chia seeds. Blend these ingredients until the mixture is smooth to create a nutritious base for your smoothie.
- Add Ice and Blend: Add 1/2 cup of ice to the blender and blend again until the mixture becomes smooth and frothy, giving the smoothie a chilled, refreshing texture.
- Sweeten to Taste: Taste the smoothie to check if it needs a little sweetness. If desired, add 1 teaspoon of honey or maple syrup and blend briefly to combine. Serve immediately for best flavor and freshness.
Notes
- You can substitute oat milk with any plant-based milk of your choice.
- Use either hemp seeds or chia seeds based on preference or availability.
- Leaving the pear skin on adds extra fiber and nutrients.
- Adjust the sweetness to your liking or omit it for a naturally sweet smoothie.
- For a colder smoothie, use frozen pear chunks instead of fresh and reduce the ice accordingly.
