Smoothies

I am a big believer in breakfast every day, preferably a full english but I save that treat for when we go away. I am not a cereal fan and bore easily of toast, and I certainly do not like porridge, so my options are a little limited.  I have taught myself to eat bran flakes as they are good for you - or so the media tells us but to be honest I am fed up of them.  Whilst staying with Bernadette last November she got me into smoothies and up until the Christmas period I was having one each morning with whatever veg or fruit I had in the house.  Some tasted great other not to be attempted again!!!  Well this morning I have made myself a red smoothie and boy is it delicious.  It contains beetroot which I don't eat, never have, I remember my father eating it and thinking UGH big time so have never touched the stuff, but I appreciate the health benefits it has.  So having bought a bunch I cooked them yesterday ( had to read how to do that!!! so bad) and this morning I found a recipe on here and hey presto one amazing red smoothie and I cannot believe how tasty it is. I shall be having this one again and if the health claims are correct I such be bouncing by the time I finish the bunch of beetroot lol.


Linking with Lucky 7's  resolution and drink :)

Well this morning was spent going around Truro searching all the charity shops for clothing that could be classed as 'gothic'  we came back with absolutely nothing :( after that is was the Tesco run, which seemed to take longer than normal due to having to check everything for gluten!!
Sure it will become easier as we get into the swing of it all.
