This recipe combines the nutty flavor of gluten-free teff grain with the sweetness of frozen strawberries and the freshness of dark leafy greens. The addition of tahini and dark pure maple syrup adds richness and depth of flavor, while a pinch of salt enhances the taste.
Place all the ingredients in a blender with ½ cup of cold water. Blend until smooth, adding more water to thin as you like.
Use hardier leafy greens like kale or collards for a darker green smoothie and more tender leaves like spinach to let the strawberry shine through.
¼ cup cooked brown or ivory teff grain
1 cup frozen strawberries
