Apple Smoothie Recipe - Apple Pie Smoothie

This was today's juicing/smoothie project - an Apple Pie Smoothie! It is said to be good for athletes but I am sure that even if you are not an athlete your body will get enormous benefits from this delicious smoothie.

What you need
- 1 frozen banana
- 1/2 peeled chopped apple
- 1 cup apple juice (approximately 2-3 apples juiced)
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch of nutmeg

First juice the apples and then put all the ingredients in the blender. Enjoy over some ice!

Did you actually know that apple juice can have a similar affect to a coffee but that it is actually healthier for you? It will give you a boost of energy but without the actual lows that you experience when consuming caffeine.

I hope you enjoy this apple smoothie recipe as much as I did!








Tomato Juice Recipe

Today I just made one of my favourites; a very easy tomato juice recipe.

What you will need:
- 6 tomatoes
- a little squeeze of lemon juice

Put the tomatoes through the juicer and squeeze in a little bit of lemon juice. Enjoy over some ice!

Even though quite simple this tomato juice recipe is delicious and good for you because tomato juice can help to prevent cancer! It also improves digestion and is rich in Vitamin C; which will strengthen you immune system. Because this tomato juice recipe is so good for you, try to include it every week.
