Protein power ups
Tummy toning tastes
I love juices and smoothies and these are just a few of my favourites…
Just peachy
In your blender/vitamix:
1 cup diced frozen peaches
1/2 cup diced mangos
1/2 cup peach juice
1 scoop Forever lite ultra vanilla protein powder
1/4 cup ice cubes and water, as desired
Puree for 30 seconds or until smooth, sweeten with honey, if required, to taste. Makes 1 serving
Vitamin C in mangoes helps reduce wrinkles and the protein helps reduces hunger.
Pina Cola style Protein
In your blender/vitamix:
1 can (8 oz) crushed pineapple with juice
1 cup chilled coconut water
2 tsp lime juice
1 scoop Forever lite ultra vanilla protein powder
1/4 cup ice cubes and water, as desired
Puree for 30 seconds or until smooth. Makes 1 serving
The bromelain in pineapple can ease body aches and pains
Drink those veggies!
Ingredients:
- 1/4 Small Pineapple
- 1/2 Celery Stick
- 1 Chunk of Cucumber around 1″
- 1 Small Handful of Spinach Leaves
- 1 Small Piece of Peeled Lime ( I use half)
- 2 Apples (I like Braeburn, Gala and Golden delicious)
- 1/4 Ripe Avocado
- Ice
Juice your apples, celery, pineapple and cucumber pressing the spinach between the two apples.
Put the half avocado in the Vitamix/Blender and whiz with the ice and the juice.
Alternatively you can put all of the ingredients into the vitamix and whiz for a few minutes until smooth and no bits.
