Apple, Green Pepper, and Flax Smoothie
Soy, rice, and almond milk are popular dairy alternatives that have been around for some time. Coconut milk made its entrance like a blast from the past in recent years. The humble santan of my childhood which was used primarily for cooking and never as a beverage, now comes in modern clinical cartons. It is all the rage! How times have changed.
I recently discovered flax milk, the most recent milk alternative to hit the store shelves. Made of cold pressed flax seed oil mixed with water, it contains heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. The milk is rich and creamy with little to no after taste. It actually tastes surprisingly like regular milk. I am really impressed!
Since this flax milk is lightly sweetened with 7 grams of sugar per serving, there is no need for additional sweetener. The green bell pepper gives the smoothie a crisp, cool, and slightly grassy taste. Do give this Apple, Green Pepper, and Flax Smoothie a try.

Enjoy…..and have a wonderful day! 😎
Lovely green healthy smoothie. Must look around whether I can find this flax milk here 🙂
Flax milk is a relatively new thing. I hope you can find it in Singapore. 🙂
Happy Easter Biren! I sure can do with one of these smoothies to boost my health! Now that you mentioned that the flax milk has low after taste, I just might try it, I have seen it being displayed at my health food store.
I think you will like flax milk. It actually tastes surprisingly like regular milk. Let me know what you think once you have tried it.
this looks like it would fill me up perfectly and satisfy my craving for something a tad sweet!
This is very refreshing and has just the right blend of sweetness. I hope you enjoy it. 🙂
Green pepper… what a great new veggie to try in a smoothie. 🙂
I have been experimenting with all kinds of vegetables. The green peppers are surprisingly good and very refreshing mixed with the apples.
Flax milk, that’s interesting. It seems like food companies are never out of ideas in terms of creating new foods and food / milk alternatives. I’ll have to give this type of milk a try. Thanks for introducing it along with this refreshing recipe!
You are so right, Sharon! Lots of new things in the market to try, some of which are surprisingly good. 🙂
Another wonderful recipe with a new ingredient from you.Thanks! 🙂
