Just getting used to my Nutribullet and I think it's cracking! Really gets the food down to a more liquid consistency when compared to a blender. Anyhoo, I was referred to the Dental Hospital...by my Dentist of course...and on the way back along Quatermile and Lauriston Place in Edinburgh, I spied a wee dookit or hawf, that a food vendor was opening up, at the wee lane that takes you down to the Meadows...we started blabbing and I was looking for breakfast....he made crepes and smoothies and stuff...he gave me a delicious banana and avacado smoothy and a cracking banana crepe!! This guy is Brazilian and apparently this drink is their Irn Bru....I told him about my Gran cooking fish in milk and Cullen Skink and stuff....
Anyhoo....take
A banana minus the skin
1/2 an avacado
a dod of honey (to taste)
say 6-12 almonds
fill with milk to the Level marker on the nutribullet...and turn on...
Dunno what to call this one...but it tastes magic!!
1 Banana
Handful of frozen mixed berries
Heaped teaspoon maca powder
A few almonds
fill with goats milk to max level and blast it.
Peanut Protein
Made this one up myself
I banana
sprinkling Goji Berries
Sprinkling Cocoa Nibbs
2 tablespoons organic peanut butter
heaped teaspoon Maca Powder
Marks & Spencers Soya drink to the Max line on the nutribullet
blast for a minute......CLASS
A liitle note about the product MILK
These are my personal findings and you do not have to follow them.
To save my sinuses I shy away from dairy milk. I read an article a few years ago that promoted Goats Milk as the fats and proteins are easier to absorb in the human body and it is good for sufferers of Arthritis. I have looked at mainstream supermarket nut milks like Hazelnut and Almond milks and they have extra things added to them, that in my opinion you do not need. I like Marks & Spencers Soya milk drink (not checked the ingredients now I think about it!!). I would recommend Health Food store nut milk drinks, so far, the two brands I have used are just the natural nut milk and agave syrup which is a well used ingredient on American smoothie webpages I have read. My go to milk is Goat Milk....so switch between the milks you like all down to personal preference!!
Casein Peanut Protein
Made this one up myself
I banana
sprinkling Goji Berries
Sprinkling Cocoa Nibbs
2 tablespoons organic peanut butter
2 tablespoons Cottage Cheese (for casein protein)
heaped teaspoon Maca Powder
Organic Oatly to the Max line on the nutribullet
blast for a minute......CLASS
Use Organic Oatly as it did not have the added calcium these food companies fire extra calcium and vitamins in that you probably dont need if you have a good diet...in my humble opinion....now should I take out a disclaimer if I'm sued????
A link that has given me a few ideas is....
