Five Simple Smoothie Recipes To Kickstart Your Morning
Quick, easy and delish = the ideal brekkie.
We all know how we’re told breakfast is the most important meal of the day – but we also know that sometimes you’re rolling out of bed and rushing out the door with a slice of toast in your mouth.
If that sounds like you, we’ve got the perfect thing for you – quick and easy smoothies.
They’re easy to prepare the night before, and you can bring them with you if you’re in a hurry! Just make sure you’re pairing your smoothie with something to eat too.
Here are a few tasty smoothie recipes that all follow the same instructions: blend the ingredients until thick and creamy. Easy peasy!
Very Berry
- A handful of strawberries
- A handful of blueberries
- 1 banana
- 100ml orange juice
- 60ml greek yoghurt
This one is bursting with berry goodness and sure to boost your mood!
Green Goddess
- 1/2 ripe avocado
- 1 kiwi
- 1 banana
- 2 teaspoons of honey
- A large handful of spinach leaves
- 300ml milk or milk alternative
If you like cinnamon, add a quarter of a teaspoon in before you blend. Delicious.
Tropical Sunshine
- 200g mango
- 200g pineapple
- 100ml Greek yoghurt
- 100ml almond milk
- A teaspoon of honey
Hold back a pineapple slice to garnish – you’re practically on your holidays!
Cherrylicious
- 300g cherries
- 1 banana
- 200g Greek yoghurt
- 2 teaspoons of honey
Replace the greek yoghurt with strawberry yoghurt and add less honey if you have a sweeter tooth!
Nutter Butter
- 1 banana
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp smooth natural peanut butter
- 125ml oat milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Okay so this one may not be the healthiest of the bunch but it does have a banana… (swap the peanut butter for Nutella if you’re feeling like dessert for breakfast!)
