Healthy Banana - Arugula Smoothie [Bulkbites.com]
- Servings: 2
- Time: 10 minutes
This smoothie not only very easy, but also very healthy. Perfect drink that can fit every moment of the day. The flax seeds have many health benefits mainly due to three ingredients: omega-3 fatty acids, lignans and fibers. Bananas are a good source of carbs and make this drink very smooth and sweet. Arugula - also known as salad rocket or rucola - is very known for its antioxidants. Furthermore, arugula appears to be very good for your libido... so better make two of these delicious smoothies at once ;)
