Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Cup Water If you are drinking this straight away substitute one cup of ice for water so it’s nice and cool
  • 1 Cup Non Dairy Milk oat, rice, soya, almond, hemp, coconut drink or raw nut or seed milk
  • 1 Pink Grapefruit or other type of grapefruit. You can use oranges instead for a less sharp taste
  • ½ Cup Broccoli (Or any mild leafy greens)
  • ½ Cup Cauliflower (Or mild leafy greens)
  • 1 Tablespoon Linseeds or any type of plain seeds.
  • 1 Tablespoon Almonds or any type of plain nuts
  • ¼ Cup dates or any other dried fruit which can also be pre-soaked for a smoother blend
  • 1 Cup Dried Apricots Brown un-sulphured ones are best or other dried fruit
  • 1 Cup Oats If you don’t have a powerful blender and want the smoothie very smooth you can soak the oats for an hour before blending

Method
 

  1. Blend the ingredients in the order listed.
  2. Add more water if required to thin it out.
  3. Substitute any of the ingredients for whatever you already have.
  4. If your smoothie is too warm, you can cool it down in the fridge.
