Tahini Mango Peanut Butter Smoothie
I enjoy trying different ethnic food items. I get excited! You might think it doesn’t take much to get me enthusiastic and you’re probably right but what happens is I love to discover new taste sensations! Since I’m curious and adventurous, tasting new ingredients such as herbs, spices and food items makes me want to create new dishes – the more new food items I come across, the more fun I have in the kitchen 👩🍳!
Tahini is an ethnic food item that English countries were introduced to about 100 year ago but has been used for centuries in the Middle East, Africa, and around the Mediterranean region 🌍. Western countries use this condiment mainly in hummus recipes but in other countries, people use it in sauces, desserts, breakfast, toppings as well as a side dish. We’re slowly incorporating this condiment in other recipes besides hummus.
Back in January, I posted my smooth and velvety Roasted Red Pepper Hummus and since then, my homemade tahini was sitting in the refrigerator. The longest I keep it stored in the fridge is about 3 months… no longer! I had to do something with it plus I had a cup of frozen mango 🥭 that had been in the freezer since August… It was time to get creative so I came up with Tahini Mango Peanut Butter Smoothie!
In this featured recipe, we actually drink tahini! Some might find it slightly earthy but adding a small amount of agave nectar or honey will bring this breakfast smoothie to a different level. What’s also great about incorporating tahini in a smoothie (or other recipes) is its nutritional values. It’s a great source of calcium, fiber and protein. You’ll see how good you feel 🥰 after drinking a tall glass of this Tahini Mango Peanut Butter Smoothie!
Just a quick note about dealing with sticky ingredients such as honey 🍯, molasses, agave nectar, as well as peanut butter. I have a great kitchen trick when it’s time to measure them so to know more about it, click on this link… Measuring Honey, Syrup or Molasses without Sticking.
This Tahini Mango Peanut Butter Smoothie is a real treat! The combination is actually quite delectable. What better way to enjoy tahini than to drink this healthy 💚 smoothie for breakfast!
Cheers!🧉
