Feeling too hot to eat today? I did – yet a lunch time smoothie is a perfect compromise of drink and solids. I made this one with less liquids than usual but added ice cubes, creating a consistency reminiscent of the frozen yoghurt I used to have in the States many years ago. I ate it with a spoon, which fooled me into thinking it was pudding, yet it was jam-packed with green goodness and ONE beetroot to make it this perfectly pink!
Pink Lunch Smoothie
1/2 romaine lettuce
1/2 cucumber
1 avocado
1 banana
1 beetroot
2″ ginger root piece, peeled
1/4 fennel
1 lemon
Handful of cashews, not roasted!
Chia seeds
Coconut water
Ice cubes
Blend the lot and depending on the consistency you are after, add more or less coconut water (or regular filtered water if you prefer). Enjoy your Tuesday! x
