Butternut squash smoothie
Butternut squash smoothie
Ingredients
1 cup butternut squash - cooked *see note
1 cup of water
2 apples – cored and sliced with skin on (I prefer tart apples)
½ banana -frozen is preferred
½ lemon juiced – approximately 2 tablespoons
2 tablespoons hemp seeds – optional. Add if you would like extra protein
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
Green version
1 to 2 cups of kale – amount depends on you on how "green" you like your smoothies
Steps
Combine all the ingredients together in high speed blender. Blend until smooth.
You can add a bit more water to reach the desired thickness.
*Note
This is a great way to use leftover roasted or steamed squash. I often measure my leftovers and put them is a freezer bag. Frozen squash, like frozen banana chill the smoothie without adding ice.
