My Super Easy "Amazing Grass" Green Smoothie


I don't know if I'm the only one who's noticed, but EVERYONE seems to be obsessed with 'green' smoothies at the moment. Combining ingredients such as apple, cucumber, spinach, celery, kale, wheat grass, spirulina, avocado, etcetera etcetera. If it's green you can put it in a green smoothie and they are meant to be super amazing for your health.

Personally, since becoming a Mum, I've found I really don't have time to shop for or decide which green ingredients I should be putting in my smoothie. Luckily I have found this amazingly quick and easy way to get all my greens in one hit, and all I need is 3 simple ingredients.

  1. 250 ml Almond Milk
  2. Banana x1
  3. (And the secret ingredient) Amazing Grass Green Superfood x 1 scoop

Chuck it all in a blender and Voila! A delicious and nutritious green smoothie.

This stuff is amazing. I used to drink it before I was pregnant but stopped as it contained wheat grass, which I believe should be avoided during pregnancy. I'm happy to say that I am back on the stuff and thank god because the rest of my diet these days is absolutely atrocious. Since Sebi was born I struggle to get dressed most days let alone prepare myself a nutritious meal. So I am thankful to know that this gives me everything I need for the day, plus it does wonders for your digestive system.
Look at all the good stuff it has!!
If you want to try Amazing Grass Green Superfood, I recommend you buy from Amazon as it is a LOT cheaper. 

Also please note that I have not been paid to endorse this product in any way. I just love it and thought I would share x

Sunday Funday - Lunch at the Clapton Hart

Since I found out I was pregnant I have taken little pleasure in spending time at pubs and bars with people drinking. Downing endless pints of juice or water somehow isn't as fun. So my most favourite thing to do now when I venture out the house to be sociable is to go and have a lovely meal somewhere.

Today me and the hubby decided to go for a nice Sunday roast at the Clapton Hart pub in Hackney, only a short bus ride away from us.

This place is huge and although there were tables when we arrived at 1 PM it filled up super fast. There were lots of yummy mummies with their cute little babies and it made me so excited for our peanut to arrive, who incidently seemed to be moving around a lot today! I think he/she must have approved of the delicious lunch we had.

I had a "virgin" mary, roast beef, and rhubarb crumble and custard for dessert. Yum! I'm definitely looking forward to going back there in the summer when peanut is born as they also have a huge beer garden to relax in.


How do you enjoy spending your Sunday's? and can you recommend any interesting none alcoholic drinks?
