Simple Salads

Today’s post is a few simple ideas for quick salads to make and keep in the fridge. Sometimes we just need some inspiration to make a change!!

Beetroot Cacao Smoothie

I love to use beetroot in smoothies and juices. Not only does the natural colour really make for a treat, but the antioxidants and liver cleansing properties make beetroot an excellent addition to the diet. Consuming beetroot raw is ideal as it allows for quick and easy preparation, and also means that nutrients are not lost during cooking.

Beetroot is particularly high in folate and manganese, and contain special phytonutrients that are not common in other vegetables. These provide antioxidant, anti inflammatory, and detoxing effects.

Banana Breakfast Bites

Hi guys,

This is a recipe for coconut and banana cupcakes that are perfect to scoff at breakfast time! I enjoy them with a smoothie, or they are also great to take with you for eating-on-the-go. These mini muffins are high in fibre, low GL and high in omega 3 fats! They are so versatile too so you can add in some extra nuts, seeds, dried fruits, chocolate chips…! Be creative!
