Breakfast Tropical Smoothie!

As y’all may have deduced, I love me some fruit. They work beautifully as nature’s candy, but they also blend to make this amazing things “Smoothies!”

Smoothies are vague. I mean you have a plethora of fruit to choose from. However certain fruit mixtures seem to blend better than others, thereby given you different types of Smoothies  
My all-time fave is “My Very Berry Smoothie.”  But as I am in Nigeria where the berries don’t grow, I’ve come to love a tropical blend.

Note: This recipe does not contain bananas, not because they’ll be terrible, but because I’ve never liked bananas in my smoothie. So feel free to add them if that’s what you fancy.

What you need:

1)   A trustee Blender : If you also use yours to blend pepper, I’ve got you covered with instructions on how to wash you multi-purpose blender so you don’t get unwanted flavours in your mix.

Squeeze  a little bit of dish washing liquid into your blender.

Add some water.

Cover with the lid

And put it on. Let it work for a few seconds

Pour out sods (can be reused)

Rinse out your blender and I guarantee it will be fresh to use.

Back to it…

2) A sharp Knife

3) Lovely cups

4) A tray

Ingredients

Water Melon (A quarter cut)

Pineapple (Half a cut of a small one)

Apple (1 large)

Lemon juice (1 wedge)

Ginger (half an inch piece cut)

Note: The lemon and ginger are condiments

Directions

Wash all the fruits

Chop Water melon, pineapple, apple and mango to a size that fits in the blender.

And grate Ginger (or just throw it in depending on the strength of your blender)

Tip: You can freeze fruits before blending them, so your smoothie is ice cold.

The Smoothie can be taken by itself or with other breakfast items. I had my smoothie with oatmeal and hard boiled eggs for instance.
