Fast Track Breakfast Smoothie from Gavin Davenda’s First Class Restaurant Recipes

We’ve tried them all – the Cambridge Diet, the Maple Syrup Diet, the Cabbage Soup, etc., etc.

Now that the new year is fully underway the festive season is but a distant memory.  All that remains are the impending credit cards bills, that novelty sweater from your favourite auntie, not to mention a few unwanted pounds plus a newly acquired increasing waistline.

You may have made a New Year’s resolution to “start that diet now”, but as we are all aware, good intentions are often short-lived.

No matter how badly you want to lose weight, don’t be tempted to crash diet as this will only affect your metabolism in the long run.   All the weight you’ve lost will return sooner or later once you return to your normal eating habits.

Instead, introduce healthy meals into your diet and never miss breakfast!.  Here’s a good smoothie recipe to try, taken from First Class Restaurant Recipes by Gavin Davenda:
