This delicious smoothie is packed full of exciting flavours and is great way to use up your fruit harvests. Thank you to Merlyn for sharing!
Ingredients
- 1/2 large Banana
- 1 yellow Plum
- 1 small Pear
- A few berries (blackberry, blueberries & raspberries)
- 1 stalk Celery
- handful of spinach or silverbeet (optional)
- 1 Brazil nut
- 1 tsp Chia seeds
- 1 tsp Sunflower seeds
- A dollop of Greek Yoghurt
- Top with cold water from the fridge
Please note: the original recipe stated Karaka berries, this was referring to a variety of blackberry called Karaka Black, not the native Karaka berry, which should not be eaten.

Hi Veronica, the recipe was referring to a variety of blackberry called Karaka Black, not the native Karaka berry, but we have made a note above to ensure no further confusion. Thanks for getting in touch - Jenna - Tui Team

I made this and on the 2nd time I changed the berry mix to Blackberry, Boysenberry and raspberry and instead of the pear I used honeydew melon and it was really nice and refreshing..
