These simple ice blocks include two veggies in this delicious, nourishing treat.

Ingredients

  • 1 small beetroot -raw, peeled & quartered
  • 250 g strawberries or raspberries (2 cups) fresh or frozen
  • 1 banana/s
  • ½ small zucchini/s -quartered
  • 250 ml coconut water (1 cup)
  • 85 g rice malt syrup, honey or maple syrup (¼ cup) optional

  • Divide between ice block moulds and freeze until set firm. 

Notes

Coconut-free

Replace the coconut water with a nut milk.

Make it creamy

Replace the coconut water with full-fat natural yoghurt or coconut yoghurt. 

No banana

Replace the banana with mango.

Add Protein

I often add a scoop of a wholefoods protein powder. GoodnessMe have a fabulous selection of clean protein powders, you can take a look HERE.

TIPS

  • I've set these ice blocks in brilliant (and low-tox) stainless steel ice block moulds which you can shop for HERE. 
  • This recipe also makes a delicious smoothie (just add a cup of ice prior to blending it).
