The Usual

The Usual – A Perfectly Balanced Nutritious Healthy Fruit And Veg Shake

My usual blend of core fruit and veg ingredients to provide a refreshing healthy nutritious shake rich in Vitamins A, B(B1, B2, B6), C, K, calcium, magnesium, folate, potassium… Perfectly balanced to provide a powerful pick me up, whilst still maintaining a tasteful flavour.

Ingredients:

  • Handful Of Kale
  • Handful Of Spinach
  • 1 Cooked Beetroot
  • 1 Apple
  • Half A Pineapple
  • 1 Lemon
  • A Thumb Of Ginger
  • 1 Passion Fruit
  • 2 Tablespoons Of Flax Seeds
  • 1 Tablespoon MCT Oil
  • ½ Pint Of Water
  • 12 Ice Cubes

Method:

  1. Wash the kale and spinach and add to your blender.
  2. Chop off the top of the pineapple. Slice the remaining bit in half. Peel of the skin and slice into bits (I usually divide into 8 pieces). Chuck them in.
  3. Throw in the beetroot.
  4. Add the flax seeds.
  5. Slice the apple into quarters, cut away the seeded parts and add to the blender.
  6. Peel the skin of the ginger either with your knife or a potato peeler. Chop into smaller bits and chuck them in.
  7. Peel the skin of the lemon, cut in half, deseed any visible seeds with your knife and add them in.
  8. Cut the passion fruit in half and scoop the insides into your blender.
  9. Attach the blender to the rest of it.
  10. Add a tablespoon of MCT Oil
  11. Pour in about half a pint of water into the blender.
  12. Mix until the consistency is smooth and free of any lumps.
  13. Add in about 8 cubes of ice.
  14. Mix it again.
  15. Divide the remaining ice cubes between the number of glasses, or into the storage container (keeps it nice and cool while you drink it).
  16. Pour out the shake as desired.
