Kiwi vanilla power matcha smoothie

22nd February 2016 by bos.kitchen 1 Comment

IMG_2807-1

Kiwi, vanilla, bananas and a delicious power matcha blend from Your Superfoods are packed into this energising smoothie. I like my smoothies super thick and very cold so I added some ice to keep these babies creamy cool to the last slurp.

I layered a little vanilla chia pud at the bottom too for an extra burst of energy, which makes this the perfect breakfast smoothie. Have I mentioned how much I love matcha? Well, I do love it…a lot. I never thought it would be possible to find something to compete with my morning Americano but matcha always hits the spot. This blend is a mix of matcha, maca, moringa, wheatgrass and barley grass and actually has a really delicate flavour. A nice surprise for a green powder.

Sorry for the delay with getting my blog on the go. It’s been an unpredictable rollercoaster of a year so far and I’ve needed time to process the changes in my world. One thing I can be sure of is making food makes me feel happy so I’m going to keep creating and eating!

Recipe (makes two big smoothies) –

  • 4 frozen bananas
  • Handful of frozen ice cubes
  • Seeds from one vanilla powder
  • 2 tbsp hemp seeds
  • 2 tsp peanut butter
  • 3 kiwis (cut off a few thin slices if you want to stick some to your jar)
  • 2-3 pears
  • 2 cups almond mylk
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 2 tsp matcha
  1. Blend all ingredients apart from the broccoli and power matcha until smooth and creamy. Set aside half the mix into your glasses (or a jug if you want to make pretty layers) and blend the remaining mix with the broccoli and matcha.
  2. Add a layer of chia pudding to the bottom of your jar and stick some kiwi slices to the inside of your jar. Layer the smoothies with dollops of each smoothie for a swirly effect or layer with the light colour underneath and green on top for the ombre effect.
  3. Sprinkle with hemp seeds and enjoy!

Hello and welcome to my blog! I'm a vegan recipe developer from the UK with a passion for healthy, delicious food. Read More…

This is the carrot cake of dreams 🤩🥕🍰 mel This is the carrot cake of dreams 🤩🥕🍰 melt in your mouth tender, perfectly spiced and topped with the most creamy and light dairy free whipped cream frosting. I’ve totally revamped my old recipe and made 5 variations over the last week 😅 and this one surpassed them all. A decent amount of spice (crucial imo), super moist crumb and deliciously light frosting. Making it into a sheet cake rather than a loaf cake gives a much better icing to cake ratio too 😋 The best part? It comes together in minutes, the hardest part is grating the carrot! 🥕Enjoy xoxoxo

Carrot Cake

175g muscavado or light brown sugar
175ml sunflower/rapeseed oil
3 tbsp flaxseed w/6 tbsp cold water
140g grated carrot
50g raisins/sultanas
50g finely chopped walnuts
1 orange, zested
175g self raising flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tbsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground mixed spice
1/4 tsp ground cardamom
1/2 tsp ground ginger

Topping 

110g vegan whipping cream
2 tbsp icing sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp finely chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 170•c and line a 20cm square baking tin. In a mixing bowl, mix together sugar, oil and flaxseed gel. Add in carrots, raisins, walnuts and orange zest and stir to combine. Sift in the flour, soda and spices and fold through until fully incorporated. Pour batter into tin and bake for 45-50 mins until the middle is slightly firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and allow to cool fully.
Prepare icing by whipping cream, icing sugar and vanilla with an electric whisk until thick. Spread a thick layer over the cake and sprinkle with walnuts. Chop into squares and enjoy!
