Festive Chia Smoothie
I had come up with the idea of a gingerbread smoothie but it didn't quite turn out as planned so I adapted it and made it a festive smoothie. I am not qualified in nutrition but having met dietitian Renee McGregor I think that this smoothie is great for recovery with protein from milk, yogurt and chia seeds as well as fresh ginger which is a natural anti inflammatory to help those muscles which have been working hard!
Ingredients
- 1 Large Banana
- 2 teaspoons of chia seeds
- A small piece of fresh ginger chopped up (you can add more or less to taste)
- 2 tablespoons of oats
- 175g of yoghurt (1 small pot)
- 150ml of milk
- 1/2 teaspoon mixed spice
- Handful of raisins
Method
All you need to do is stick it in a blender and blitz until smooth, easy. I found the raisins weren't completely blended but it was quite nice with them like that.
Unfortunately I don't have a photo as it was just too tasty!

You are making a real food drink with real food, so it might take a tiny bit of attention and a few extra seconds, but like anything once you've worked out your system, it will become second nature.
