Smoothies : Easy Meal Anytime!
I usually prefer a light breakfast, I kick start my day with a handful of nuts and protein shake. Sometimes I make that protein shake into a yummy smoothie.
Smoothies are super simple to make and can be tailored to your taste. You will find a pack of frozen berries, bananas, sometimes peaches, nectarines, even avocados in my freezer. I use a combination of 1 or 2 frozen fruits. Then, I add in some nuts or a non-flavored protein powder. This makes it a wholesome meal.
Yes, I do agree eating a fruit is better than blending it. However, when given an option between processed food and a smoothie, I would gladly pick a smoothie any day.
Banana's in Smoothies, Yummy!
Bananas are great addition to smoothies, for rich creamier and natural sweet taste. When my boys were small, this Nutella banana smoothie was their all time favorite.
With Dubai Summer always at peak, we love a tall glass of chilled smoothie to regular meals. This gorgeous mixed berries and banana smoothie, and Pear banana smoothie are my personal favorites.
My hubby loves creamy & nutty dry fruit smoothies. His favorites are creamy fig and banana smoothie and this dry fruit banana smoothie.
Have you seen a Golden Kiwi ??
I bought a pack of zespri kiwis last week, i didn't notice what type of kiwi's they were. When i cut it open , they were amber in color. I quickly checked the cover to see whether i really bought kiwi or something else. Love the taste of it and i m already getting lot of ideas to use them well.
Golden kiwi is often referred to as the "golden kiwifruit." It is a sweeter variety of kiwi that has smooth, bronze skin. Its flesh is vibrant yellow or gold. It is known for its delicate, tropical flavor profile and is rich in vitamins C and E.
Today's Coconut Milk Kiwi Smoothie Story
Today, I was in a mood for a delicious kiwi-strawberry smoothie, and I decided to skip the bananas. Why ?? some ask! There can be many reasons to avoid bananas. What if you don't have banana? or avoiding banana's for some crazy diet? or simply can't have a banana or don't like a banana?
Then how to get that volume and creaminess in your smoothie? No Worries, you can add in some almonds, oatmeal, chia seeds, or even softened poha (rice flakes) to your smoothies. These tasty options will still give your smoothie that great volume and creaminess!
This smoothie is such a treat. It blends the creamy goodness of coconut milk with the sweet zing of kiwi. It also features the bright colors of berries. I hope you give it a try - I can't wait to hear how much you love it!
Ingredients to make Vegan Strawberry Smoothie
- Fruits : I have used fresh kiwi and frozen strawberries to make this creamy smoothie.
- Liquid : I have used coconut milk and water as the liquid in this smoothie. You can also use oat milk or any flavored plant based milk like vanilla almond milk. If you don't mind using regular milk, here is similar recipe strawberry banana smoothie.
- Sweetener : No sweetener is used in this smoothie. The berries and the kiwis were sweet enough for our taste. If needed you can add 1-2 teaspoon sugar ,or 2 megdool dates.

Pretty pink color smoothie, addition of coconut milk must have enhanced the flavor and taste of the smoothie.
I agree it is not necessary for a banana in a smoothie, though I love to have them in my smoothie... 😉 This is such a lovely vegan smoothie.. anything with coconut milk, I am game for it... 🙂
I like these golden kiwis too. In fact, given a choice between the regular kiwi and this one, I would choose this.
Such an interesting one Priya...never used coconut milk in smoothie before..must try!
Your clicks remind me of the story of Goldilocks ! Big , large small ! The smoothie looks pretty and those golden kiwis are delicious , I have had these many times.

Beautiful color to the smoothie. Addition of coconut milk adds a totally new dimension. I should also try this.
Coconut milk tastes so creamy and delicious in smoothies. Nice combination.
yummy smoothie
Awesome recipe..
The smoothie was the best morning breakfast this week. It was the best way to hide kiwi in the mornings.
Initially I was a bit wary of adding kiwi to a smoothie recipe because of the slight astringent taste. However, after trying this kiwi and strawberry smoothie I'm a fan of kiwi in smoothies. Such a smooth, delicious and filling breakfast option. I added a bit of oats to it.
My little one would love the colour of this smoothie, not to forget she would gulp it in place of biting into fruits for breakfast! strawberry is such a beautiful add to this pick me up dish!
This is a different combination, Kiwi and strawberry together, Need to try this. Looks yum.
