Smoothies are an awesome way of providing the body with heaps of nutrients. They also provide your system with a well-earned digestion break from the heavy foods we typically consume in winter.
Here is one of my favourite springtime detox drinks that will put a spring in your step.
Springtime Detox Smoothie
Serves 2
Ingredients:
2/3 cup of almond milk
3/4 cup of ice
1 cup kale (roughly chopped)
2 stalks of celery (roughly chopped)
1 green apple (cored and chopped)
1 tbsp flaxseed (ground)
1 tsp raw honey
A sprinkle of cinnamon if you need a little extra sweetness
Method:
Simply put all ingredients in your blender or food processor and blitz to make a smooth, creamy consistency and enjoy straight away.
For those who want a little extra fibre to start their day, add half an avocado to the mix or a tablespoon of chia seeds for some added nourishment.
To boost the vitamin C content, add some fresh parsley to the mix. Yum!
