Mixed fruit and berry smoothie

A fresh smoothie is always a great way to start the day and the possibilities are limitless. Lately I've made more of them, and always feel energetic and light all day after such a breakfast. I like making them in this season, because many fresh berries are still available. I've frozen some berries for later use, but the fresh and local ones are always the best.

Today I had these fruits and berries available for a smoothie:

1 passion fruit

1 apricot

6 strawberries

1 tsp sea-buckthorn powder

150 g Greek yogurt



Blend the ingredients together and enjoy the freshness of the smoothie.

Have a great week!

5 breakfast bowls


For the start of a new week I want to introduce to you five different breakfast bowls that I've had recently. They are not all from last week as I also really like to have salty spelt, oat or barley porridge in the mornings. Also my weekend breakfasts tend to be more unhealthy than these.

So anyway, a nice bowl of yogurt with fresh berries and fruit, maybe granola or muesli is a very fine thing. At the moment I try to go for a fast paced walk in the park every morning, and when such a healthy breakfast awaits, it's just a wonderful feeling. Alone the looks of such bowls will make you feel cheerful.

Here are five different breakfast bowls that I assembled, but you can get really creative with this and use all your favourite ingredients. I find the berry powders a really good addition, as they are super healthy and add loads of taste.

I. Raspberries, sea-buckthorn powder, granola, yogurt


II. Mango, fig, yogurt



III. Blueberries, dried apple crisps, sea-buckthorn powder, yogurt



IV. Apricots, blueberries, granola, yogurt 
 

V. Pomegranate seeds, strawberries, yogurt


Good start to the week to everyone!
