Banana Lassi

Try something a little different with this delicious banana lassi. The combination of ripe bananas, natural yogurt, milk and a little cardamom powder makes for a refreshing and nutritious drink.

The cardamom powder adds an exotic flavor to the drink but do use it sparingly as a little goes a long way.

I also like to sprinkle on some crushed pistachios or flaked almonds if I have any handy.

Ingredients:
  • 2 ripe bananas, peeled
  • 1 cup of 2% milk
  • 1/4 and 1/8 cup of natural yogurt
  • 1/8 tsp of cardamom powder
  • 1 Tbsp of chopped pistachios or flaked almonds
  • (Serves 2)
Preparation:
  1. Place all ingredients except nuts in a blender.
  2. Blend until smooth.
  3. Serve in drinking glasses with a sprinkling of nuts.
