Sweet Tomato Smoothie

I've been enjoying a Nutriblast most days for breakfast during this healthy eating phase in a bid to lose weight. I love the fact they are so simple to prepare and the clean-up operation isn't too taxing.

Here's a lovely, sweet juice to start the day with. It comes in at 224 calories.

Sweet Tomato Smoothie

• 2 tomatoes
• 4 frozen strawberries
• 65g mango (fresh or frozen is fine) 
• 1 orange
• 1small pear
• 10g sunflower seeds
• 100ml water

Firstly peel the orange and throw into your Nutribullet or blender. Now remove the stalk and the core from the pear (no need to peel) and also add. Pop everything else in and adjust the water according to the consistency of smoothie you prefer.

Blitz for twenty seconds. Enjoy!

Here are some of my other favourite smoothie ideas:

• Green Goodness Smoothie
• Sunshine Bright Smoothie
• Apple and Mango Mojito
• Berry Blast Smoothie
• Banana Mocha Smoothie

Sunshine Bright Smoothie

There is something rather fabulous about brightly hued smoothies first thing in the morning and this Sunshine Bright Smoothie just reminds me of more tropical climes - I think it's the combination of the banana and mango. The porridge oats help keep hunger at bay for a few hours too. It's a winner.

This smoothie contains 367 calories if you stick to the measurements below. 

Sunshine Bright Smoothie

• 1 banana
• 80g fresh mango
• 50g cucumber
• 10g sunflower seeds
• Handful mint leaves
• 25g porridge oats

Peel the banana and mango and throw into the Nutribullet or blender with the cucumber, sunflower seeds, porridge oats and mint leaves and blitz for 20 seconds. Enjoy!
