Blueberry smoothie
This makes a great post-workout smoothie or healthy breakfast. It’s so light and refreshing – good for warmer months – and the frozen fruit makes it gorgeously thick and slushy. (NB grab a spoon!) Blueberries provide a boost of antioxidants and are far cheaper and tastier when you buy them frozen.
Makes 1 smoothie
You will need:
- 1/2 cup (large handful) frozen blueberries
- 1/2 banana, cut into coins (frozen)
- Handful spinach (ideally frozen)
- 1 tbsp oats

Method:
Blitz everything together until smooth and creamy. Serve straight away.
