Super Power Smoothies

Good Morning!


Over the last year I have tried to make an effort to eat more Green. Which lets be honest isn't always easy, (especially when the cafe at work sell Kettle crisps). 

One sure way to make sure you get all of the super power benefits of fruits and veggies is by making and drinking smoothies!


They take literally 5 minutess to make and you can easily get up to 3 of your 5 a day in just one glass.

Up until about a month ago I always stuck to fruit smoothies. The green vegetable smoothies kind of freaked me out a bit and I'm sure I'm not alone on this one.

However since I have experimented with the two recipes below my outlook on green smoothies and spinach has forever changed. They are simply Delicious.


Recipe


BerryGood


Ingredients:
  • A big handful of spinach 
  • One small banana
  • Few Drops of lemon juice
  • Handful of frozen summer berries (strawberries, raspberries, black currant, red currant)
  • 100ml of water
Throw it all together into a blender and blitz it till it's smooth.






Recipe


The Green Pow



Ingredients:

  • Three big handfuls of spinach 
  • One banana
  • Few Drops of lemon juice
  • Two Granny Smith Apples
  • 250 ml of water
Throw it all together into a blender and blitz it till it's smooth.








These smoothies are packed full of:


Iron
Fibre
Vitamins
Potassium
Super Powers



P.s. They taste so good even Nala wanted to try them!



Till next time,
