James Colquhoun JAMES COLQUHOUN

Filled with anti-inflammatory fats and rich minerals, this smoothie not only tastes delicious but is also brimming with the nutrients to give your skin a peachy glow!

Ingredients

  • 1 banana
  • ½ avocado
  • ¾ cup almond milk
  • 2 dates
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 2 tsp cacao nibs

Method

  1. Place all ingredients except for the cacao nibs into a blender and whizz together until smooth.
  2. Add the cacao nibs and blitz for another couple of minutes to add a ‘chocolate chip’ flavor sensation.
  3. Otherwise, blend for longer if you’d prefer a smoother, well-combined consistency.
  4. If you find this smoothie mixture is too thick for your liking, add an extra 6-8oz of water.
