Green Smoothie Heaven and zero pro points!

6 comments

green smoothie

Green smoothies are the one! I don’t really like having breakfast and although I make sure Princess eats before she leaves for the child minder, I usually leave the house with little more than half a cup of coffee in my tummy. I’m trying hard to stick to Weight Watchers plan and one of the messages that get drilled into our head is the importance of not skipping meals. Juicing and smoothies seem to do the trick and replaces my coffees in the morning without making me feel like I’m ‘eating’g

Simple, quick and easy. Sometimes I add half a banana or a handful or strawberries but mostly I stick to the recipe I had above. It’s a zero pro points start to the day so if a couple of hours later I feel peckish I can have a yoghurt or something more substantial points wise without feeling guilty as I wouldn’t have used any points before hand.

I’m new to this breakfast game and need to spruce up my repertoire of easy meals to prepare at 6am in the morning before work so all suggestions are welcome!

    Oh I need to try this. I love a good smoothie. I’ve just done the shopping online (too much snow to venture out to the supermarket) but I might post across the road to the little shop and see if I can get these ingredients!

      Jess it will be worth the walk through the snow!! I ran out of spinach earlier in the week so substituted for the frozen ones and it still came out delicious!

    What a fantastic idea! I sometimes find that I do not have time to sit and actually eat food for breakfast – the school run can be hectic!! When I do get a chance to sit down I don’t feel like anything – this smoothie looks great though and I expect it tastes delicious and for zero Pro Points it is even better!

    Would love for you to link this up to the Weight Loss Wednesday linky – always lots of recipe inspiration floating around but would be nice to have a smoothie idea on there!
