Healthy Breakfast Smoothie

Create your own smoothie from whatever seasonal fruit  you have at hand.  They can be as simple or fantastic as you wish.  Combining the fruit with good fat and  protein lowers the ‘Glycemic Index’ of the smoothie, giving a more steady, longer-lasting release of energy.  

Blend a combination of:
• Seasonal fruit and berries: use just one type of fruit, or several.
• Fats: soaked nuts; ground seeds; tahini; avocado; egg; coconut cream
• Flavouring: honey; spices; vanilla; cocoa; carob, soaked dried fruit

Breakfast is a good time of day to add  nutrient dense ‘superfoods’ to your diet.
The following can also be added to a smoothie:
• Ground flaxseed or flaxseed oil (for Omega-3)
• Spirulina
• Vitamineral green or Barley Grass (from Wild Health)
• Bee pollen
• Protein powder or 1 free range organic egg

Here is my favourite simple breakfast smoothie which keeps me going all morning:
Simply blend all ingredients until smooth.
Making it in the Tribest Personal Blender is especially easy - simply blend and exchange the blender base for a 'sipper top'. 
There you go; a meal in a glass!
