Green Juice

Happy Sunday All!

It's a Green juice kind of Sunday for me before I head to church to hear the word of God and dance along to the songs from the choir! Today is the 3rd Sunday of the month which is Jeans Sunday in my church so it was relatively quick for me to find something to wear, make a green juice and head out!

On a normal Sunday I rummage through all my clothes testing and trying them all on then ...before I blink it's time to go!! Grrrrr late!!

Mango & Grapefruit Smoothie

Grapefruits are known for that sour-sweet taste that it produces and I can bet you lots of people will say they don't like grapefruits due to it's peculiar taste.

Mangoes  are generally sweet although the taste and texture of the flesh varies. Some mangoes have a soft pulp texture similar to an overripe plum while others are firm like an avocado or cantaloupe. This fruit compared to grapefruits is much preferred.

I have a very simple recipe that I would you to try with these two interesting fruits.

Ingredients

• 1 mango
• 2 grapefruits
• a teaspoon of honey
• splash of single cream light
• Ice cubes ( not a regular occurrence for me)

Beetroot Banana and Grapefruit

Hello Beet Lovers,

I love Beets!! Eveytime I cut open a beet I feel like I have cut my hand.

Note to self- always wear gloves.

Raw beets have a strong earthy taste, so it may may take you a while to get used to it.

Beetroot is one of my favorite smoothie ingredients. A little goes a long way and it adds so much nutrition and flavor to a smoothie. The rich red pink color it produces bursts with flavour. The banana and grapefruit balance the sweet, slightly earthy taste of the beetroot juice wonderfully. 

Beetroot, Banana and Grapefruit

• 2 large red grapefruit
• 2 raw beetroots
• 2 frozen bananas
• A cup of Alpro Almond Milk Unsweetened
• Honey to taste
• Raspberries to garnish
