Blueberry Morning Glory Smoothie & Breakfast with Johnny

What you will need for this creamy, gentle smoothie - Makes two generous glasses

125g/1cup of fresh blueberries
2 small bananas
200ml/1 cup of plain half fat organic yogurt
200ml/1 cup fresh apple juice
5 ice cubes

I like Johnny Depp and here are the reasons why -

He’s a family man and yet still about as rock ‘n’ roll as you can get.

He has a vintage quality that reminds me of movie stars of the past, yet he is entirely modern.

He doesn’t always appear to play the game and I’ve always had a fondness for ANYONE who doesn’t play the game. That is what attracted me to Robert the Husband – ZERO game playing of any sort.

His partner is Vanessa Paradis, which just caps it. She rules my world when it comes to women that I can’t take my eyes off…..well her and Audrey Tautou, who is also french. What is it about those french women? They have an insouciance that I like. It’s almost as if they can get away with smoking a pack of Gitanes a day!

Lovely!

Anyway, jeez, back to the recipe, which is GREAT if you can’t do the whole ‘breakfast thing’ as soon as you wake up. I know that breakfast is very important but some of us need to be up and about for at least an hour before we start another day of shovelling food down our gullets so this smoothie acts as a healthy segue into that!

How you make it

Put all of the ingredients in to a blender and whizz it up until smooth. I would recommend chopping the bananas up in to smaller pieces beforehand. Serve and drink immediately as this smoothie works best when chilled. You can find a weight conversion chart here if needed.

Serve with a breakfast posy of anything you can find…….
