D.I.Y.- Everyday Morning smoothie/ healthy drink (matcha and banana ver.)

This morning I decided to add in my morning breakfast a healthy smoothie/drink. I wanted to share with you my recipe.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
-1 or half frozen banana
(I used half for one portion but you can add 1 whole banana if you want your smoothie to be nice and creamy)
-Half a cup of Vanilla Soy milk (you can use cow milk, almond milk, soy milk...)
-Honey (or any other sweetner)
-1 or 2 tbsp of matcha powder (you can use 1 tbsp if youy don't want it too flavoured)
(or any other fruits or berries such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries... depends on what flavour you want it)
-Blender
OPTIONAL:
-2-3 tsp Chia seeds

LETS START:
-First of all peel, cut and put in a container/bag 1 banana and put it in the freezer.
-After 2-4 hours (or better overnight) take it out of the freezer.

Prepairing the matcha powder. Put the matcha powder in a cup or a bowl and mix it with warm water (the same amount as the matcha powder) untill it's smooth.
 

















Add the banana, Vanilla soy milk, matcha and honey in the blender. Blend untill smooth

Ready to serve
 
You can eather leave it like this or add ice cubs
I gave it a little twist and added chia seeds.

OPTIONAL:
After pouring in a glass/cup add 2-3 tsp of chia seeds (the day before I added the chia seeds to water so they would make the jelly stuff and left it overnight but it's better to add them dry) 

You are done! :D
Ready to drink. the purpose of the Banana is to give it that creamy texture and adding Chia seeds makes it even better and makes you feel full and it's really good for your body. It's rich in fiber and omega-3. The cool thing of Chia seeds is that if you leave them in liquid they will make a jelly thing arround them. Chia seeds actually don't taste of anything but it's a good way of making healthy pudding.
