Green banana, spinach and ginger low FODMAP smoothie bowl
This low FODMAP smoothie bowl was designed for sensitive guts, phases of increased bloating, or for those coming off a program like the DEBLOAT and looking to maintain digestive comfort right from the morning.
It is fresh, light, and low-fermenting, with no excess fruit, heavy combinations, or unnecessary ingredients.
Why this recipe works well digestively
The base of this recipe combines ingredients well-tolerated in a low FODMAP context, when used in the right amounts.
A firm, less ripe banana, in a half-portion, provides energy without excess fructose.
Spinach is light and easy to digest, even for more reactive guts.
Fresh ginger helps stimulate digestion and reduce feelings of nausea or abdominal heaviness.
The result is a breakfast that nourishes without overloading, ideal for starting the day with lightness.
Ingredients (1 serving)
-
½ firm, less ripe banana
-
1 small handful of fresh spinach
-
1 teaspoon of grated fresh ginger
-
150–200 ml plant-based milk (almond or rice, unsweetened)
-
½ dessert spoonful of Detox Blend or Immunity Blend The Therapist
-
Gluten-free granola The Therapist, for topping (moderate amount)
Preparation
Place the banana, spinach, ginger, and plant-based milk in a blender.
Blend until you achieve a creamy and homogeneous texture.
Pour into a bowl and finish with a small amount of The Therapist granola to add texture and satiety without weighing down digestion.
Important note on low FODMAP portion
This recipe is low FODMAP when the indicated amounts are respected.
Avoid increasing the amount of banana or adding other more fermentable fruits.
Regarding the granola, use it only as a light topping; excess may compromise digestive comfort.
The Therapist suggestions (mindfully)
-
The Detox Blend works well for those who feel their gut is slower or sluggish.
-
The Immunity Blend is a good option during times of greater fatigue or seasonal changes.
In both cases, less is more: half a spoonful is enough to benefit without overloading.
When to consume
This smoothie bowl works best:
-
for breakfast
-
on days of increased digestive sensitivity
-
when you want something fresh, but easy to digest
If you tend to feel bloated first thing in the morning, consume it calmly and avoid having it with coffee at the same time.
