Smoothies - good one to start the day?

[Jungfraujoch]

To aid my new healthy regime I'm going to get a blender and want an easy and tasty smoothie to kick start my day!

Nothing complicated - but full of goodness!

Smoothies are not as healthy as you may think

the gist of it is here

I'd just eat the fruit tbh

Oh really? That's blown my health kick out the window then!

I love to blend my fruit into a smoothie for breakfast: I only eat the same amount as I would if it were whole fruit so I am not eating too much sugar (I use MyFitnessPal and record all food and have lost 2st).

My fave combos are
*small banana + 4/5 strawberries
*1/2 peeled peach (or tinned peach in juice) + few raspberries
*40g raw baby spinach + 1/3 cucumber
*tinned pineapple in juice + a splash of coconut milk

I add a little chilled water or ice cubes to the blender to make a more liquid drink

Thanks Pink- they sound delicious - apart from spinach and cucumber maybe!!!
