Sunshine Smoothie

If you have had a weekend full of over indulging (I'm not naming any names here!) then maybe it is time to ring the changes with a healthy kick start to the day?  I've never been an enormous fan of smoothies for breakfast, don't get me wrong, a smoothie (in general) has its place, but to me a fruit drink was never going to fill me up enough to get me through to lunch time like a bowl of cereal or a couple of pieces of toast.  Joyfully, I was wrong!  My hips will be thanking me by Hogmanay I'm sure ;0)

Tropical Breakfast Smoothie
1 mango
1 orange
Juice from a lime
4 cubes of frozen passionfruit pulp
4 tbsp natural yogurt - low fat naturally!!

Place everything into the blender and whizz to your heart's content.  Sunshine in every mouthful!

Serves 2

... and now that I am feeling so positively virtuous I'm off to see how much chocolate can be smuggle into my Christmas baking!

  5. This looks delicious and so much less "indulgent" than all the other stuff around at the moment. I think I have had enough of all the dense stuff for a little while. :)
