This idea came from a dilemma I had where every morning I'm in too much of a hurry to leave the house that many times I don't get time to grab a bite and I have to buy unhealthy snacks. Porridge is my favourite morning meal but waking up to heat it is too much of a chore (I like to sleep till the very last minute possible, hehe!) So I had a brainwave and said, hey, instead of stressing over reheating porridge, why not just throw the cold porridge into a blender with other things and make a smoothy? Thus the mighty uji smoothy was born and boy, it's delicious and super healthy! It also prevents me from feeling hungry, so I reduce snacking. Make a lot and refrigerate and you can use the whole week.

Steps

5min smoothy
  1. 1

    For uji, boil water as per your amount of flour.

  2. 2

    If you're using chiaflax and/or blended beans, don't add at the same time with the other flour, add at the end. Same goes for pumpkin seeds, oats, nuts.

  3. 3

    Mix your preferred flour mix with a little water and add to your boiling water. Stir continuously until it boils. Then simmer for around 10-15 minutes depending on the flour.

  4. 4

    Add chiaflax and blended beans, bring to the boil, and cook for about five minutes. Dilute with water if need be as chia gets very thick very fast.

  5. 5

    Leave to cool then refrigerate. If you don't have a fridge it is also ok to leave it out overnight but don't cook a lot.

  6. 6

    For the smoothy, put two cups of the uji into a blender, add all the other ingredients and blend until smooth.

  7. 7

    Enjoy a healthy breakfast!
