Quinoa Banana Berry Smoothie

Quinoa (pronounced keen-wah)  is an ancient grain grown in the Andes Mountains and dates back to 3,000 B.C.. This protein rich whole grain contains all the essential amino acids necessary for muscle & tissue repair, is gluten free and fiber rich. Quinoa is often used in place of rice and is versatile enough to be the headliner in this ultra yummy & nutritious smoothie.

Quinoa Banana Berry Smoothie

Quinoa Banana Berry Smoothie

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup cooked Quinoa (cook according to package and chill)
  • 1 frozen banana (pre-sliced)
  • 1 cup frozen raspberries
  • 1-1/2 cups green tea (home brewed without added sweeteners is best), add more or less depending on consistency preferred.
  • 6 ice cubes

Directions

Place all ingredients in the blender and blend until smooth.

Tip: Quinoa can be purchased in the organic or health food section of most supermarkets. We recommend Inca Red, pre washed. Also, red Quinoa is slightly sweeter than white or black, which is perfect for this recipe.
