FROZEN BANANA AND PEACH SMOOTHIE
Ingredients:
- 1½ Chiquita bananas
- 2 peaches
- 2½ cups of water
- 1 lemon (zest + juice)
- 2 tblsp of pistachio nuts
- ½ a pomegranate
Method:
Grate the lemon zest in a separate bowl. Cut up one banana and grind the pieces together with the peaches, the lemon juice and the water to a smooth mixture. Pour the mixture into a low metal baking tray and put it in the freezer for an hour. When the mix freezes, stir with a fork to create ice crystals. Put the mixture in summery glasses and garnish with half of the banana, the pomegranate, lemon zest and pistachio nuts.
