Green Tea Protein Smoothie Recipe

I was recently sent some organic matcha green tea powder from Kiss Me Organics and I knew exactly what I was going to use it in first.. Matcha powder is known to boost energy and burn calories. This amazing ingredient can be used in lattes, baking and my favourite, smoothies. I love smoothies and I love green tea so what could be better than combining the two.

Below you will find my recipe for my favourite protein packed green tea smoothie.

This is something quick and easy to make, it is full of lovely vitamins and is ideal for an on the go breakfast or a post workout shake.

Ingredients

* 1 and 1/2 cups of almond or coco nut milk (you can use normal milk but I find these make it taste a lot better)
* 1 tbsp matcha powder
* 1/2 banana
* 1/2 frozen banana
* 1/2 avocado
* 1 scoop vanilla protein powder

Preparation

* Simply pop all of the ingredients into a blender and blend until completely smooth.

* Drink immediately!!!

  4. What is in matcha powder? I don't eat gluten, for health reasons, and it is so hard to find a protein powder without whey or wheat of some kind. I also have liver issues and don't eat soy. I like smoothies and can always use the extra boost!
