Smoothies are a great way to start the day, especially in the hot and humid weather conditions we are experiencing at the moment. They are healthy, filling and will keep you going until lunch time.
1 cup milk (or soy, oat, rice or almond milk)
1 ripe banana
1 teaspoon ground flaxseed or cold-pressed flaxseed oil
1 teaspoon wheat germ
Handful of berries of your choice
1 tablespoon honey (optional)
Place all ingredients into a blender and process until smooth and fluffy. You can add some nuts or/and seeds too if you'd like.
As you can see, a healthy smoothie is a meal in itself and will keep you going for hours.
Enjoy!!!
