Nutritious Smoothie In a jar

A healthy breakfast, mid-evening snack or a desert. This nutritiously delicious jar can be made with variety of fresh and dry fruits.

This one in particular was made with 2 seasonal fruits : Dates and Figs
Both fruits, naturally sweet calls for no added sugar!

Ingredients:
1/2 cup yogurt ( I prefer using the ready-made yogurt like Nestle etc.)
2 pieces, de-seeded Dates
1 fresh fig, washed , cleaned, de-skinned and cut into halves
2 tbsp mixed nuts (almonds, walnut,hazelnut)
Honey 1 tsp (optional)
Cinnamon powder
Mint leaves form decoration.

In a magic bullet (blender) blend the yogurt into a smooth paste. Add the cut fruits and blend again, now add the nuts and churn quick and intense, the coarse nuts adds a good texture to the smoothie.

If you feel the smoothie is think, add few spoons of milk to loosen a bit. Pour in a jar and drizzle some cinnamon powder or nutmeg powder.
Serve chilled with a leave of basil or mint.
