Healthy Smoothie Recipes

If you prefer light food in the morning and want to have a real vitamin bomb at the same time, the classic fruit smoothie is the perfect choice. The breakfast drink is quickly made and provides us with all the necessary vitamins and minerals already in the morning - perfect for a healthy diet. Simply peel and chop a banana, a kiwi - golden kiwis are best - an apple and an orange and put them in the blender. Add about 300 ml of coconut water and puree. In principle, the whole thing also works with still water. However, the coconut water makes the smoothie particularly creamy. In addition, coconut binds the fruit acid and gives the smoothie a particularly mild note.

For all those who have a busy day ahead of them and could use an extra portion of energy, the satiator is a great alternative. Peel a banana and half an avocado and puree with approx. 200 ml coconut water in a blender. Now add a handful of cashews, a teaspoon of honey and about 100 ml of coconut milk. Blend until the cashew nuts have combined with the mixture. Particularly hardy people can also add a handful of chia seeds.

The healthy fatty acids from avocado, cashews and coconut milk keep you full for a long time and provide lots of vitamins and minerals.

For fitness enthusiasts, there is nothing better than starting the morning with a proper workout.

Now add 40 grams of instant oatmeal and 30 grams of vanilla protein powder and puree again. Ready is a real power shake with over 6o grams of protein.

Now add two to three dried dates and a small piece of peeled ginger and blend the whole thing with some chili and vanilla powder. Add half a teaspoon of Himalayan salt and a dash of lime juice, blend briefly - done.

What many people don't know: Pointed cabbage is an excellent source of vitamin C, and the combination of Himalayan salt and lime juice lowers the rather high pH level in the morning - perfect for a dynamic start to the day.

The spinach lettuce kale smoothie is the detox drink par excellence.

Finally, add some agave syrup and a small piece of ginger - the detox drink is ready.
