VERY BERRY BURST-MAS


This makes a great recovery smoothie post run or work out! Or perhaps an alternative to another helping of Christmas pudding.

The combination of red berry fruits are abundant in Antioxidants, Polyphenols, Vitamins K and C, which aid in cell repair, recovery and Cardiovascular performance.

One banana contains 467mg of Potassium, which helps protect the Cardiovascular system and is reported to help reduce high blood pressure and risk of stroke with regular consumption. (Please refer to a GP or fully trained health practitioner for medical advice).

Ingredients:
2x Bananas
4x Broccoli florets 
2x tsp Chia Seeds
1x tsp Super Green powder
6x Strawberries
1x tbsp Blueberries
1x tbsp Raspberries
100g Spinach 
2x Apples or 50ml Pressed Apple Juice
50ml Grape Juice

Method: Add the chopped bananas, broccoli and strawberries into a blender. Top with either the juice of 2 apples (or 50ml press apple juice) and the grape juice. Throw in the spinach, powder, seeds and berries. Blend on pulse or high until smooth. 

Enjoy!
