I talk a lot about the importance of prioritising both protein and fibre when creating meals, especially during midlife to support overall health and weight. This super filling and delicious smoothie will keep you satisfied all morning long, containing 30g protein, over 7g dietary fibre and a dose of anti-inflammatory good fats from the addition of avocado and seeds.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup frozen blueberries
  • ½ small  banana
  • ¼ avocado
  • 25g baby spinach leaves
  • 35g protein powder
  • 2 tsp chia seeds
  • 2 tsp hemp seeds

Method

1. Place all ingredients in a blender with 300ml chilled water and blend until thick and creamy.

Tips/hints

Choose a good quality protein powder such as isolated whey, pea or brown rice with minimal added ingredients.
