Red fruits and vegetables in particular contain nutrients that boost lycopene and anthocyanin, and maintain healthy blood pressure, strengthen the immune system, discourage growth of tumors, reduce bad cholesterol, and help prevent arthritis.

Blend with ice cubes if you prefer a colder smoothie.A few weeks back, I finally took the plunge and ordered a NutriBullet. After seeing so many tempting instagram snaps and Pinterest recipes, I couldn't resist. About the same time, the Almond Board of California got in touch with me to ask if I'd like to take their 21-day Snack Happy Challenge (http://www.almonds.co.uk/snack-happy-challenge). The stars had aligned perfectly.I've been snacking on a handful of almonds every day this month, and including them in my favourite smoothie recipes.Why almonds?• A handful of almonds (30g) provide approximately 65% of your daily requirement of vitamin E.• Almonds are a high source of fibre, are packed with healthy, unsaturated fats and are a natural source of protein.• Almonds are rich in calcium, which is needed for the maintenance of normal bones and teeth.• Almonds are a high source of magnesium, which contributes to reducing tiredness and fatigue.• Almonds provide linoleic acid, which contributes to maintaining normal cholesterol levels.• Just a handful of these noble nuts is all you need to up your daily nutrient intake. Pop them in your handbag to snack on-the-go in your moments of need.

It’s totally sugar free yet sweet and tasty enough not to crave for other unhealthy foods. And easiest like my other recipes. ;)

For a big boost of energy, try starting with this smoothie. It’s loaded with healthy fruits like watermelon, which helps dilate blood vessels to promote blood flow. Also, it has coconut water which hydrates and reduces blood pressure. I get two 16oz servings when I fill my blender to top. (You can save leftovers if you make too much at once!)

Hiiii everyone, I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend. I do hope the weather has turned into Spring for some of my blogger friends and friends around the world. 🙂Today’s post is not a Greek recipe but a recipe that I just love!! Smoothieeeee 🙂 I mentioned in a previous post that I was given some Mangos which I have already added into a salad and have made a few other recipes, 🙂 but one thing I have not made yet is a delicious Mango Smoothie. (My Absolute Favorite!!!) I found this recipe in REAL SIMPLE many many years ago and just loved it. The original recipe does not have any Cinnamon added into or on top of the Smoothie, but I had to tweak it. I have added a teaspoon of Cinnamon into the smoothie along with the honey, and I just topped it off with just a small pinch of Cinnamon. 🙂 (Just because I like it)I enjoy having a smoothie throughout the day, I am not really the kind of person who would make a smoothie to have for breakfast. I prefer having a nice breakfast in the morning with fruits, cereal. toasted bread, etc. and later in the day enjoy a great smoothie, 🙂 especially if we are having hot weather. 🙂 So, I hope you enjoy this smoothie recipe, let me know if you try it out. 🙂

#GoldenApron23I love trying new smoothie recipes. After visiting a friend who made a blended drink with grapes, I thought I would try making a breakfast smoothie that included grapes. This smoothie combines grapes, watermelon, peach, and milk of your choice.

Sometimes I really don't feel like cooking my meals. There comes smoothie bowls to my escape. They are so easy to make, highly nutritive and light on stomach. What else you could ask for?I simply chop my fruits, froze them for 2 or more hours (frozen fruits give creamy smoothie texture) and blend. This particular smoothie I made with banana and papaya, added turmeric & cinnamon because of it's numerous benefits and garnished it with whatever came handy first.I really enjoy my chilled smoothies during summers as breakfast mostly. What about you?#nonindian
