Breakfast Smoothie Recipe
1st Jan 2016
From the Rainbow Chef - Barbara Cox.
Smoothies are a quick and delicious way to help you get your 5 a day. You can use a whole variety of weird and wonderful fruits (like guava, lychees or persimmon) or more familiar ones such as bananas, mangos and melons. Just remember that the greater the variety of fruit you use, the greater the range of essential nutrients you’ll be feeding your body’s vital biochemical processes.
Smoothies are great for any time of the day and you only need a basic blender.
