Well of late I have been on a detox of certain foods, especially after the Christmas period where all we seemed to eat was sugar, dairy and wheat! As a result of being off all of these items our new eating regime consists of fruit and nuts all day and then one meal at night consisiting of salad, vegies and a meat either chicken or steak. So as a result I was looking at something I could do with the fruit to help fill me up and I came up with my version of a Boost juice!
I use nectarines, mango, blueberries, grapes, strawberries, peaches, apricots and grapes. I cut all of these items up and place into a ziplock bag and freeze overnight.
Once frozen I put the frozen fruit into a blender that has ice creushing blades along with a bananna and freshly squeezed orange juice, using the ice crushing setting first I let the machine do it's thing and then I put it onto the smoothie setting. The result is pure YUM! I have also added a scoop of my protein powder in before I put it on the smoothie setting to add a little more substance to the smoothie!
These have been really good and I have found that they have enough in them to last me a few hours and they are really refreshing after a workout!
