Breakfast Smoothies


I'm going to update this post with a handful of good smoothies as I try and test them over time. 


Green Smoothie

This has a light watery taste. Pretty easy to just drink and start the day feeling healthier. 
Serves 1
  • 100ml Water
  • squeeze of lime or lemon
  • 1/4 cucumber
  • a handful watercress or spinach
  • a handful of broccoli
  • 1/2 pear
  • a handful of ice-cubes
1. Place all ingredients into your blender - In this order for Vitamix users & select smoothie programme.
2. Blend and serve immediately.

Based on James Duigan 'Clean & Lean Diet Cookbook p164' which also adds 1tsp grated ginger, 1 celery stick too and omits the pear!
