The Nutrigasm Group

Good afternoon all, I hope your Bank Holiday Monday is treating you well. Mine has led to me sitting on my iPad in the sunshine, blogging about yummy smoothies - so all's well from my end.

After a fair few weeks of hasty throwing-in-of-kale and overly keen amounts of spooky things like wheatgrass, aloe vera juice and matcha tea powder; I think I've finally cracked it. AKA, my smoothies are finally edible, healthy and making a real difference to the way I feel.

To save you all some time buying the Nutribullet, scrambling around for fresh ingredients that ultimately don't work together and holding your nose while you drink said smoothie, I thought I would provide you with four of my showstopping recipes. These four recipes have earnt themselves a place in the rather selective Nutrigasm Group, a group that only allows in smoothies that truly bring pleasure to the lives of their drinkers. As part of this group, the smoothie is entitled to add 'gasm' to the end of their titles, and forever shall be known as such.

Some of the following recipes offer comfort, some offer a strict purpose and some are for those of us looking for a little something different. Pick out the things you like, change what you don't and guzzle down whatever combination leaves you with. 

Let me know all your thoughts and, if any of you have any contenders for the Nutrigasm Group, please comment them below and I will happily blitz away and do various taste tests (it's a hard life, but someone's got to do it…)
