In a world full of processed and sugar-dense food, gourmet vegetarian chef Natasha Corrett has created four cleansing recipe plans suitable for every occasion. Her new book Honestly Healthy Cleanse is a cookbook for food-lovers who want to look and feel fabulous. This week, we’re sharing four of the recipes on the #slimdown plan so you can try them at home.
On her delicious Kale and Oat Smoothie, Natasha says: “This is an energy-creating smoothie – the oats are fantastic for releasing their energy slowly and so this smoothie will keep you full until lunch. Serves one as a breakfast, two as a bite, or one as an accompaniment to a solid breakfast.”
Ingredients
150g pear, cored
45g kale
115g cucumber
40g gluten-free oats
480ml coconut water
1 tsp spirulina powder
Here’s how to make it:
Put all the ingredients into a blender and blend until completely smooth. The smoothie is best drunk straight away, but you can always put it in a jar and take it out with you to drink as soon as you can during the day.
Honestly Healthy Cleanse by Natasha Corrett is available now from all good bookshops.
