Ingredients
Tomato-Cucumber Smoothie
Peel cucumber, cut in half lengthwise, remove seeds with a teaspoon and dice flesh.
Rinse tomatoes and wipe dry. Thread 3 tomatoes onto a small wooden skewer and reserve for garnish. Halve the remaining tomatoes.
Rinse dill, shake dry and pluck leaves.
Combine diced cucumber, tomato halves, 2/3 of the dill and the kefir in a blender. Season with salt, pepper, and chili powder. Add ice cubes and puree until smooth. Pour into a serving glass and garnish with remaining dill and reserved tomato skewer.

Healthy, because
This drink is pure health. The fresh mix contains hardly any calories, but plenty of vitamins and minerals. Instead of hidden sugars or sweeteners, there is a small portion of protein, which ensures light satiation and strong muscles.
Even smarter
If you want it to be a little more substantial, add a spoonful of wheat germ. Let the wheat germ swell briefly before mixing. Cress is a wonderful alternative to dill.
