Avocado and Banana Smoothie with Raspberry Syrup
A creamy delicious drink rich in B vitamins, mood boosting trytophan and magnesium to calm and soothe frazzled nerves. Avocados are also a great source of vitamin E and monounsaturated fats – great for a healthy heart and silky soft skin. By adding a little cool oil to the smoothie you can also boost your intake of healthy essential fatty acids – a great way to get kids to eat them without even knowing! The raspberry syrup is delicious drizzled over the top of the smoothie and also makes a great sauce for puddings, pancakes, ice-creams or stirred into natural yogurt for a quick tasty dessert.
