Today the sun has been shining and there have also been clouds. Sous Chef J decided he needed a summery drink to 'get into summer' so decided to make a smoothie.
As is good practice, he gathered the ingredients (but forgot the orange juice in this pic) then set about preparing his Vitamin C packed drink of delight.
It's a simple to make concoction. He puts all the ingredients into a container then whizzes them with the Braun Hand Blender (although, after seeing a Vitamix demo at last week's Good Food Show, he keeps telling me one of their blenders would be better!!)
Using a handful of hulled strawberries, juice of one orange and a whole ripe banana as a base he added a squirt of lemon, a squeeze of runny honey, a splodge of natural (home made) yoghurt and a dash of vanilla extract.
Then WHIZZZZZZZ. Pour out into "suitable receptacles" and enjoy!
This blog is to share recipes we have found work for us as we follow a Gluten Free regime. Most pictures will be taken by my "sous chef" son as we use cooking as a means of integrating educational and OT activities into daily life. Please remember to check all your ingredients for suitability if you have food allergies/intolerances... we are detailing things that work for us.
