Rainbow smoothies

 

Preparation time: 20 minutes

 

Makes 2 large glasses or jars

5 strawberries

3 bananas

A few raspberries

50 g other berries

50 g blueberries or blackberries
(or acai powder)

1 kiwifruit

½ mango

100 ml pineapple juice

250 g Greek-style yoghurt

½ dragon fruit

Edible decorations

 

The day before, cut up and freeze all the fruits in plastic bags (or use already frozen fruits).

 

At serving time, blend the strawberries, 2 tablespoons of banana, 2 tablespoons of pineapple juice and 2 tablespoons Greek yoghurt in a blender, then pour into a large glass or jar. Repeat the process with the same quantity of banana, yoghurt and pineapple juice, each time adding, in turn, the frozen raspberries and other berries, blueberries, kiwifruit and the mango, to make several layers of colour.

 

Finish by decorating the smoothie, adding a pretty straw and a slice of dragon fruit cut into a star, or a few blueberries.

 

Serve immediately or screw on the lid of the jar to take to the office or a picnic
