Kickstart Smoothie

Hello! I'm sat with my delicious smoothie that I just made and I wanted to share it with you. At the moment I'm on study leave for my exams and with 2 down I now have 3 to go *phew*! My food wishlist for my study leave contained lots of fruit that I could make smoothies with as I wanted to be able to have something in the mornings to kickstart my brain and have some food in me. I'm the worst at eating breakfast because I hate eating in the mornings and I wanted to be able to have something before I buried my head in books.

I cut up 1 whole banana, a kiwi, a whole apple with skin (because the skin is the good part) and added a handful of blueberries along with the 4 raspberries that someone had left in the fridge.

I then added them to my blender with some Greek yogurt and a little bit of water although if you like to eat less dairy you could just use water or some fruit juice.

It's really that simple. While I don't always do it, I think it's really important to have something at the beginning of the day to kickstart your brain and metabolism and this also gives you a natural sugar boost. There are so many different variations of smoothies - you could use avocado, orange, more berries or peaches - it really depends on your preference and this is one of my favourites.

Back to the books but what do you put in your smoothies or juices?
