Simple smoothies to make using a hand blender – Kutchina

No matter what the weather is outside, smoothies are the perfect healthy snack that you can have at any time of the day. Using a hand blender you can make smoothies and you can pack all the nutrients of fruits and vegetables into one drink. If you are planning to make some delicious and healthy smoothies at home using  your hand blender, then here are a few simple smoothie recipes:

Classic banana smoothie: Take a bowl of frozen banana. Use ripe bananas for their sweetness. Add a slice of peeled orange. This adds Vitamin C to your smoothie and makes it tastier. If you like your smoothie to be creamy, add plain yoghurt. To help the ingredients blend well, add a little bit of milk. You can use water instead of milk. Now, using a hand blender machine, blend everything until it’s smooth. Garnish the smoothie with strawberries. 

Strawberry smoothie: If strawberries are in season,  you can enjoy them in your smoothie. In a jar, take frozen bananas and then add strawberries. It’s better to use frozen strawberries instead of adding ice. Now, add a few teaspoons of honey. Then add a little bit of milk and blend everything together. Garnish your smoothie with slices of pineapple. 

Green smoothie: You all know that spinach and kale are loaded with essential nutrients. But to chomp them raw can be quite boring. Load the goodness of these greens into a smoothie. Take one frozen banana and add the greens of your choice. Add 1 cup of milk and honey as per your taste. Let your blender do its job and you have a sumptuous smoothie ready. Add nuts for the crunchiness. 

Chocolate smoothie: In a jar, take one cup of milk, cocoa powder and frozen bananas. Using a hand blender, combine everything together. You can also add sugar if you have a sweet tooth. Instead of sugar, you can also use dates. Garnish this decadent smoothie with some chocolate flakes. 

Coffee smoothie: If you are a coffee lover, then you have to try this recipe. All you need is a cup of freshly brewed coffee. Let it cool down. In a jar take a frozen banana, add a cup of the coffee, and 1 teaspoon of unsweetened cocoa powder. For sweetness, you can either use sugar or honey. Now, using a hand blender machine, combine all the ingredients together. 

With a hand blender at home, you can make smoothies at any time of the day.
