Unable to easily digest Soylent led me to experiment with what many refer to as "healthy smoothies". This is my personal riff on a smoothie that can be a great meal or a large liquid snack and should be easy on the gastrointestinal tract.

I prefer my meals to utilize as many plant-based and natural ingredients as possible. I also happen to be on a low FODMAP diet, due to being restricted by which ingredients I can comfortably digest (heavily processed foods and/or certain chemicals in addition to high FODMAP natural foods must be avoided). Note there is no added sugar nor sweeteners in this recipe either.

Typically I toss all the ingredients in a blender and guesstimate the measurements of each ingredient...adjust to taste. The original recipe is for a single serving to be served immediately, anything unfinished should keep for approximately 12 hours refrigerated, in an airtight container. Enjoy and please leave me your feedback.

UPDATE: It has come to my attention that more than ¼ cup of bananas is no longer considered "low FODMAP" ...so if you have an intolerance to bananas, I would recommend substituting plantains, strawberries or blueberries instead of bananas in this recipe. That said, most people can tolerate unripe bananas in much larger serving sizes versus ripe bananas so I've updated the banana ingredient to reflect this change.
