Smoothies - healthy, taste fantastic, but are a lot of effort for something that doesn't really fill you up. Until that is, my Runners World magazine suggested including muesli.....
So for an energy giving healthy breakfast that you can wander round the house with whilst getting dressed for work (surely I'm not the only one that does that), here is my recommendation.
A banana
A tablespoon of natural yogurt (I don't think this is strictly necessary, but adds protein, calcium and a lovely creamy taste)
A handful of muesli
A splash of cranberry or orange juice (about 150ml probably - I haven't measured)
Blitz it all in a blender then drink.
A note on muesli - I'm not a fan of currants, raisins etc but muesli makers seem to like them (note to self, should really make my own muesli). However the joy of this recipe seems to be that they somehow miss the blender blades and I end up with a pile in the bottom of the blender that I just throw away.

Alternative to muesli is oats. They make the smoother taste a little creamy.
