The Green Bomb Smoothie

Ingredients:

Handful fresh baby spinach leaves
1 kiwi fruit, peeled
1/2 banana
1/2 lime juice
100 ml mango and guanabana juice
100 ml water
A few fresh basil leaves
*

One more tip for the smoothie recipes as requested. This one felt like an energy bomb, it was full of antioxidants and was very refreshing. Don't be afraid of the baby spinach leaves, they leave practically no taste and add to the texture of the smoothie. Basil leaves go amazingly well with banana. Again, just mix all the ingredients in a blender and if you prefer thicker structure, omit the water.
Bon Appetit!

Banana Peanut Butter Smoothie

Ingredients:

1/2 banana, cut into circles
3 tbsp yoghurt (soy)
1 tbsp peanut butter
100 ml orange juice
100 ml water
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon powder
*

Another of her smoothie tips, just mix all the ingredients in a blender until smoothie structure achieved. This smoothie is almost like a dessert, a bit more fulfilling than the others and not tot forget, the peanut butter is very caloric, so one spoon should be sufficient.
Bon Appetit!

The Berry Coconut Smoothie

70 ml Alpro Soya Mild and Creamy strawberry and rhubarb drink
1 tbsp rasped coconut

Smoothies seemed to be everywhere now, on blogs, tumblr, in magazines. She was drinking smoothies in the morning for a long time now. It was her morning routine before she went to work. It gave her the energy she needed for a good start of the day and for her journey to work which took her about an hour. She only had breakfast after she arrived at work. The preparation was super easy, just put everything together and mix with blender. This version was a bit richer and mor fulfilling. She used soya milk products as she was lactose intolerant, but feel free to use yoghurt or alternatively also goat's milk products. Be careful on the coconut milk part as the milk is very rich and oily, it should only add a bit of taste and texture to the smoothie. More of her favourite smoothies were about to follow. 
Bon Appetit!
