Always Tired? No Pep or Zing? Tap Into Breakfast Smoothies!
Kim Beardsmore
I'm 40-something years old, and for 40-something years breakfast
has been a pain. Some of my earliest memories are getting ready
for school with my mother insisting I eat a bowl of cereal.
It just never interested me. Once high school started I was
skipping breakfast and grabbing two apples on the run for lunch.
All my life breakfast simply wasn't something I got interested
in or thought about until I made this discovery...
Someone introduced me to the most amazing concept for breakfast.
By now I was well entrenched in not taking time over the first
meal of the day (and sometimes the second meal), so anything
that captured my attention was going to have to be fast, no
fuss and delicious to warrant any of my attention.
Instead of cardboard cereal and bland milk, it's possible to
start the day with power packed, nutritious, energizing and
best of all, yummy smoothies. Smoothies have been around for
ages, but I had never twigged they make a great start to the
day. Imagine the delight of selecting from a range such as Chocolate
Strawberry, Hazelnut Coffee, Peach Almond, Banana Bread &
Apple Pie Surprise. Kid you not! You can make an endless variety
to suit your own taste. Now this was interesting to me.
Not only did I start regularly eating breakfast, my energy
shot through the roof! This changed my whole perspective on
being 40-something. A period where I thought as a mother, wife,
and corporate executive I was supposed to be tired all the time.
Not true.
Here is one of my favorite recipes.
Strawberry Parfait
3 tablespoons vanilla flavored soy/whey protein powder
250g (6oz) strawberry flavoured fat free yoghurt
1 cup strawberries
4 ice cubes
Blend in hand-held or benchtop blender. Pour into your favorite
glassware and enjoy.
