Green Smoothie
Information:
Calories: 469, Protein: 37g, Fats: 30g, Carbohydrate: 15g
Ingredients :
10 cm length of cucumber cut into four
2 celery sticks cut into four
Handful of spinach
Handful of kale
2 cm knob of fresh ginger
2 cm knob of fresh turmeric
½ a lemon (all the lemon, only remove the seeds i.e. you want the zest and pith!)
1 scoop protein powder (organic rice/pea or 100% grass-fed WPI/WPC)
1 tablespoon organic cold-pressed coconut oil
1 tablespoon flaxmeal
1 tablespoon tahini (unhulled or hulled)
7 large ice cubes
¼ cup filtered water
Method:
For all smoothies, add all ingredients to your blender and blitz for 3 minutes. Don’t worry if you don’t have all the ingredients, it will still taste great! The ice is important though as it breaks up the fibres of the veggies and makes it smooth!
Optional add-ins: maca, mesquite, glutamine, cinnamon, greens powder (I use Bulk Nutrients, Green Fusion with spirulina, wheat grass, barley grass and chlorella), berberine, milk thistle, ashwaganda, cayenne pepper, your capsule supplements (why not skip consuming the capsule and just have the contents mixed with other nutrients?).
All these smoothies are anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, hormone balancing delights, packed with heaps of vital nutrients

NB I buy half a pumpkin, cut into 4 and steam for 20-30 minutes in my Thermomix Varoma, skin side up, or in a tray with 2 cm depth of water and covered with aluminum foil in a 180 °C oven. I then let it cool before scooping out the flesh into portion sized containers and freeze so I always have some on hand.
