Undressed Skeleton: Berry Veggie Smoothie!

Everyone LOVES smoothies! But, not everyone loves vegetables. Smoothies are the best way to hide the taste of vegetables. Sure, adding vegetables to a smoothie sounds a little disgusting, but just try it.

I taste tested this on Jeremy yesterday. He cringes when I tell him I add vegetables to…

eat-pure:

Ban-ashew Oat Cookies
Crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, and the longer they’re left, the softer and moister and yummier they become, mmmm

Ingredients
85g cashew butter
80g whole oats
2 medium bananas
1 large egg white
1 tablespoon vanilla extract (NOT essence) 
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C (in a fan oven) / 356°F / gas mark 4 and line a baking sheet with some slightly greased baking paper
Mash the bananas with the cashew butter and vanilla extract
Beat in the egg white
Combine with the oats
Plop (lol) tablespoons of the mixture on to the baking sheet and flatten with the back of the spoon. You don’t need to space them out that much because they don’t spread while cooking.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden, leave to cool to room temperature on the baking paper and carefully peel off.
I made 8 cookies, each one is approx 130 calories. 
But I may have eaten some of the mixture.. you might be able to make 9, or use a teaspoon instead of a tablespoon to make 16 bite sized ones (you need to lower the baking time).
For breakfast tomorrow, I’m sandwiching two of these babies together with cooked and mashed raspberries and banana, urgh I can’t wait.

Undressed Skeleton: Super Smoothie Style!

I love fruit: in a box, I’ll eat fruit with a fox. Warm or baked or boiled or grilled, I eat fruit to keep my energy filled.

That didn’t sound like Dr. Seuss at all…

I made a smoothie this afternoon that tasted too good to be only fruit. I’m used to adding yogurt and milk into my smoothies….
