Smoothies are a great introduction to breakfast if you don't normally have much of an appetite at the crack of yawn. They're also a good portable option for your morning commute.
Compared with some hardcore recipes, our green smoothie is a softer version that's quite sweet and fruity, while still giving you a healthy serving of greens. Blend all the ingredients together until smooth. Add more water to achieve the desired consistency.
Tips
Instead of tinned fruit, you could use frozen or fresh fruit.
150ml of this smoothie provides one of your 5 A DAY.
