BASIL & BLUEBERRY ALMOND MILK SMOOTHIE

For print-friendly version, click the PRINT button at the end of the post

This is great for a quick breakfast. The basil is a key ingredient so, weird as its inclusion may sound, don't be tempted to skip it. It's also worth keeping a batch of chopped bananas in the freezer so that you can whip this up whenever you feel like it. (Peel and chop each of your bananas into three or four pieces, seperate them out on a tray to freeze them initially and, after an hour or two, transfer them to a zip lock bag. Flat freezing them first ensures they won't stick together when you bag them up.)
