Smoothies are one of my favourite ways to start the day. They’re quick and easy and I can drink them on the way to work as I’ll never get up early enough to eat at home; I need my sleep!
I also find they’re a great way to get in a load of fruit and veggies as well as some extra protein. I always prep mine the night before so that in the morning I just have to add milk, blend and go.
So here’s my favourite one. Banana, blueberries, spinach, peanut butter and chocolate protein. It’s seriously delicious. What I sometimes do is make smoothie bags on Sunday, where I bag up a chopped banana, the blueberries and spinach; then the night before I weigh out my protein and peanut butter. All I have to do in the morning is add it together and mix it with almond milk. If you do this you’ll find the smoothie is much thicker and might require a bit more liquid as otherwise it’s more like a smoothie bowl and can be difficult to drink.
Experiment with different berries and see how you get on; it’s a fab way to start the day!

Hi! We're Kelly and Sam, vegans from Jersey in the Channel Islands. We are passionate about veganism and how easy it can be. We hope that our blog inspires you to adopt a cruelty free way of living, and help you to make the transition to veganism. 
![We think this is a great quote for a bit of vegan inspo. We often hear people say, 'Oh I could go vegan apart from [insert food here]'. So do that! Go vegan apart from that food you just can't give up. Then over time, as you learn more, and find out just how easy veganism is, and how much better you feel for it, you can start to give up those last bits. It's all part of the vegan journey, and every little bit you do is better than doing nothing at all.
