This raspberry & tahini smoothie recipe (Rainbow Plant Life) is one of several recipes you can try, in a post (with a chart) on how to make the perfect smoothie. Tahini is a jar of calcium-rich sesame seed paste, you can find in all stores. Nisha says you need some of plant milk to make smoothies, because making them with water is ‘downright sad’. She also explains how to ‘hide’ some vegetables in there including cauliflower (due to its mild taste).
Once you know the basic formulas, you can whizz up something tasty, with whatever ingredients you have to hand. There’s even a chart to help you out:
- Liquids
- Greens
- Fruit

If you invest in a good blender to make smoothies, UK law says the shop selling it, has to take back old appliances for recycling.
