OMEGA BOOSTING C!


This smoothie is perfect to kick start the day or for a pre-workout energy boost. It is great to recharge the batteries, particularly if you are feeling run down.  

It can be used as a tonic during the Christmas holiday season after a bit too much excess food and alcohol has depleted your energy reserves. 

The broccoli has protein for muscle and cell repair, while good sugars and complex carbs are supplied from the bananas and oats.  Omega 3 and fibre come from the Chia seeds (found in select specialist health shops or online). Finally the strawberries and spinach are full of nutrients and loaded with vitamin C.

Ingredients:
2x Bananas
20g Oats
2x Pressed Apple (or pure juice 100ml)
60g Spinach
4x florets Broccoli
6-8 Strawberries
2x tsp Super Greens powder
1x tsp Chia Seeds
Splash of water

Method: Throw the chopped bananas, oats, broccoli and strawberries into a blender. Top with the apple juice, water, powder and seeds. Then the spinach. Blend on pulse or high until smooth and blended.

Enjoy!
