6. Fruit or Vegetable Smoothies

Sometimes it can feel impossible to eat the full recommended daily allowance. Apart from the odd fruit snack and piling your plate high with veggies at the dinner table, one great way of consuming fresh fruits and vegetables is by turning them into super-powered smoothies. Try freezing various pre-peeled and diced fruit such as banana, strawberries, mango and pineapple, this gives easy access to grab a portion from the icebox, throw them in the blender and Bob’s your uncle, you have an easy, healthy, cooling drink with minimal effort. This is also a great source of fiber since the fruit and vegetables you use will be utilized wholly and no vitamins or minerals will be lost.
