Here is what is in it:
2/3 cup frozen blueberries (that you picked in early July, washed, dried on several layers of paper towel, froze in a single layer on a rimmed cookie sheet, then put in several quart size bags before placing them in the chest freezer - because this is a freezer blog)
1 frozen banana (a fresh banana will work, but again, freezer blog)
6-10 large basil leaves
1/2 cup coconut milk (Trader Joe's Light - leftover from making Chana Masala earlier in the week)
Blend the first three ingredients in a food processor or blender until smooth. Add coconut milk and pulse a few times. Enjoy.
I am in no way a smoothie master. This one was a shot in the dark made with what I had, but it turned out just sweet enough with a bit of a tropical flair. I feel strongly enough about it that I am recommending it to you!
Are there any favorite smoothie combinations out there?
