The Bowser (Super Mario Series #3)

The Bowser

     Welcome back to the blog! This week I'm introducing a weird little smoothie to you that is called "The Bowser." This is the third smoothie of ten in my Super Mario Bros smoothie series, and if you missed the other two, you can find them linked below!

     The Bowser was a tricky one to design because I wanted a strong yellow colour, but I didn't want to include any orange juice or it would be too similar to another smoothie coming up in this series. After some trial and error, I came up with the perfect combination of ingredients, and I'm so happy with the result! Don't be worried by some of the ingredients. They may not be 'typical' smoothie foods, but they work very well in the Bowser!

Try the Mario

Try the Luigi

Yield: 1 meal // or // two snacks

Ingredients:

1/4 cup chickpeas 

(These must be low sodium, strained, and rinsed!)
1 frozen banana

1 cup frozen mango

1/4 tsp turmeric

1-2 tbsp lemon juice

1/2 cup almond or coconut milk

Instructions:

1. Blend the chickpeas with 1/4 cup of water until smooth.

2. Add all other ingredients and blend!

Don't let the chickpeas and turmeric intimidate you, this smoothie tastes amazing! It reminds be of a banana-mango lemonade type thing. :)
