Seasonal warm smoothie made with freshly picked brambles (blackberries) that we found on our forest walk with the dogs today…I love those heavenly moments when nature provides something so delicious, nutritious and so unexpectedly! 🙂
So the ingredients were…
a handful of blackberries,
a green apple,
a pear,
tbsp of maca,
tbsp of goji berries,
tbsp of flax seeds,
tbsp of pumpkin seeds
and topped with half almond and half water…
In my vitamix I can blend it on high for a few minutes and it will warm it up because let’s face it it’s freezing outside and who wants to drink a cold smoothie heading into the winter months…not sure if this works in other blender models you can give it a try.
If you like it a litte sweeter you could add a date or two or a dollop of honey. This recipe was shared between two people.

Mini corn wraps
Grate two courgettes into a bowl and add 1/2 cup of wholemeal flour, finely diced red pepper and you could also add a tin of sweetcorn. I didn’t have in the cupboard so I skipped this but would probably add it in next time for a little sweetness. Season with salt and pepper and clump into little balls, fry in coconut oil in a non stick pan. Serve with salad. We had these topped with cream (soy cream) spinach sauce (recipe in the sides section) fried mushrooms and chipotle hot sauce! We also had potatoes cooked in cauliflower cream on the side too!
