A yummy banana, kefir & quinoa breakfast smoothy!
I love making drinkable breakfasts, don’t you? Sometimes, we can be a bit lazy.
This is what I made.
Recipe: For 2 persons, each 1 large glass
Ingredients:
500 ml of unsweetened kefir
1 ripe large banana, peeled & cut into chunks
2 tablespoons of finely chopped pecans
4 tablespoons of medium-sized quinoa flakes
a few drizzles of agave syrup or brown rice syrup
1 tablespoon of vanilla extract ( I use home-made )
Method:
1. Put every ingredient, except the agave syrup or brown rice syrup in a bowl & mix everything together or put into a blender. Mix finely.
2. If necessary, add a few drizzles of agave / brown rice syrup into the bowl & mix well.
3. Pour into 2 breakfast glasses & serve.
Enjoy
A delightful combination!
