Virgin piña colada dinner shake 

Evening time can be danger time for dieters; it’s when sweet cravings often strike and, because you are tired, it’s all too easy to reach for junk food or dial for takeout. It’s also the time many of us fancy a cocktail to help us unwind. While this meal replacement shake contains no alcohol, it does taste a lot like a pina colada which makes it a great way to celebrate the end of the day without derailing your diet.

Five vegetables dinner smoothie 

The standard recommendation for health is that you should consume five portions of fruit and/or vegetables a day. This should be easy if you are able to eat fruit and/or vegetables at every meal but if you tend to eat all your veggies in the evening, this can end up being a big pile of food to eat. One easy way to make sure you get your fantastic five is to have them in an evening meal replacement shake!

Method

De-stone and peel the avocado and de-seed and chop the pepper. Place all the ingredients in your blender and blitz for 30 to 60-seconds. Serve immediately.
