Whatever you’re in the mood for, simply choose your favorite recipe on Cookidoo® and get started.
Fruit is a great source of vitamins, minerals and heart-healthy antioxidants, but they also contain a lot of natural sugar. You don’t need to pack a lot into a smoothie for it to be nutritious. Start with a liquid base of water, coconut water, nut milk, green tea or maybe some kombucha. Add greens of your choice such as kale, spinach, Swiss chard, parsley or mint. To boost your digestion, add plenty of green leafy vegetables to your recipe and a few berries for extra sweetness and flavor.
Hemp, chia or flaxseeds are a good source of vitamins and minerals. For more targeted nutrition benefits, add turmeric or cinnamon to reduce inflammation, or ginger to help circulation. Serve over ice or blend for a thick, chilled drink.
If you want to keep things simple, focus on an easy recipe with bananas, pineapple, melon and greens. If you like things peppery yet sweet, arugula and watercress mixed with strawberries, dates and coconut will hit the spot.
Blending or emulsifying your produce will help keep the fiber and nutrient content high. Blend and enjoy the benefits of healthy digestion, controlled blood sugar and lowering risk of heart disease. For a high protein recipe, add your favorite protein powder, Greek yogurt, nuts, seeds, grains or oats.
