Okidokie, I have definitely noticed I go through phases like there's no tomorrow! So you know how I was loving on eating my smoothie bowls separated for a while there.. Well apparently now my body wants a proper smoothie bowl... but with raw granola (ie. not oven baked) so: I whipped up a delightful smoothie of 1 frozen banana, a large handful of frozen honeydew chunks, a handful of frozen zucchini chunks, a handful of spinach, a handful of kale, 3 big spoons of greek yoghurt and some water to get it all moving!! And topped it all off with a mix of uncooked cashew butter granola and uncooked peanut butter granola. Steps as follows: Place a tablespoon of each nut butter into two separate small bowls, place a tablespoon of almond milk in each, microwave for around 20 seconds, add to one of two bowls, each with 1/3 cup oats, sprinkle chia seeds, small handful of no-added-sugar wholegrain cheerios (or other cereal/ crunchy thing you like) and stir to combine! Then simply top your smoothie (which has been chilling in the freezer whilst making the granola) with the soft, fudgey raw granola and ENJOY! P.S. Adding honeydew to smoothies is a good idea!! Very good indeed! But when you don't have time to whip up such an extravagant brekky? Say, you are scheduled in to start work at 6:00am, so are up at 5:00am but still need a little first breakfast to keep you sane? 1 frozen banana: + greek yoghurt: = Quick easy and delicious!! And then when break time rolls round- second breakfast!!! Yep, I made my raw freezer frudge brownie again (I really don't like cooking things do I?) To make this delicious bad bowl, simply place 3/4 cup oats, sprinkle chia seeds, 1 scoop of choc protein powder, 1 teaspoon raw cacao powder, dash of cinnamon, 2 dates, 1 heaped tablespoon peanut butter (or any nut butter) 1/3 cup almond milk (add more if required) to a food processor and process to combine (until thick and sticky)- transfer into a small container lined with baking paper, cover and freeze for a few hours or overnight! He may not look like the prettiest brownie, but boy, this guy tastes so gooood! Think of the fudgiest, richest, chocolatiest brownie you've ever tasted and I reckon this guy would give it a run for it's money. And it's good for you too! Bonus!! Brownies for breakfast? Yes, please! The take-away from today's post? Steph's current new phase is raw foods. Or that healthy foods can-and do- taste amazing! You can take your pick ;) What about you? What's your favourite frozen fruit to add to smoothies? Ever tried uncooked granola? Are you a fan? Ever had brownies for breakfast? The healthy or... less healthy kind? I hope you all have a fabulous Monday in whatever it is you are doing (I'm heading out to breakfast!!) be brave, take risks and smillleee :) Bye for now friendly freinds!! :D P.S> Don't forget to eat something delicious!! Thought I had forgotten didn't you? ;P
