I often find myself getting confused with a smoothie and a milk shake so tried googling today. Some facts about smoothie from wikipedia :
A smoothie is a blended, chilled, sweet beverage made from fresh fruit or vegetables.In addition to fruit, many smoothies include crushed ice, frozen/.dry fruit, honey or frozen yogurt. They have a milkshake-like consistency but much more thicker. Unlike milkshakes, they usually don't contain ice cream, but contain milk.
A smoothie is very refreshing for a morning breakfast. This dates smoothie is not only filling its healthy too! The flavour when cornflakes,dates and honey are blended tastes so gud!
- Milk - 1 cup
- Dates - 4
- Cornflakes - 2 tbsp
- Honey - 1 tsp (optional)
- Crushed ice - from a cube
Method:
1.Blend cornflakes, dates, milk, ice and honey to form a smooth mixture. [No sugar needed]
2.Garnish with crushed cornflakes and Serve chilled!
Thick creamy yummy breakfast smoothie ready!
