| Healthy green smoothie for breakfast |
Eating raw, vegan and healthy aboard is a challenge in a number of ways, but the one thing that actually makes it easier is we do not have an oven.
We have an electric hob, but to operate that we need to run a generator. So we gravitate to raw meals.
We have also managed to find a number of health shops wherever we are, that stock most of the ingredients we need, and there is nearly always a fresh food market in the town.
And as I mentioned in the previous post, the one electrical gadget we do have is a stick blender.
So, here is one of our favourite healthy breakfast smoothies:
1 apple
2 kiwi fruit
1 banana
2 or 3 dates, pitted
heaped spoon of barley or wheat grass powder
heaped spoon of a green super blend
water
Coarsely chop the fruit.
Add the powders.
Add sufficient water to bring it to about a litre.
Whizz with a stick blender or power blender.
Of course you can use any fruit you like – for this green smoothie, we sometimes use green melon.
We do always try to use organic fruit if possible.
Bon apetit
