- Add the juice to your blender / smoothie maker with half a chopped de-cored appled and the flesh of half a de-stoned avocado (the easiest way to remove the flesh from the skin is with a spoon)

Why this is good for you
This smoothie really is a meal in a glass - and contains more nutrients in one serving than most people will have in a week!
Don't worry if you don't have all of the ingredients - you can always add an extra slice of pineapple if you're missing a few things.
This really is a full meal so make sure you don't forget to chew!
