I created this quick breakfast idea and the family LOVE it. This is a great idea to add to spring/ summer for breakfasts or on the go smoothies at any time.
I set up a bunch of small snap lock bags. In each bag I put the following:
- 4 strawberries
- A spoonful of blueberries
- 1 dessert spoon of oats
- 1/2 banana cut up into pieces
- 2 spoonfuls of your preferred yoghurt (I use natural yoghurt)
- Splash of vanilla
- Sprinkle of cinnamon
- a squeeze of honey
- a sprinkling of flax seeds and chia seeds
Zip up the bags and pop into the freezer. That's the hard part!
Then, each morning, I just take a zip lock bag out and add it into my magic bullet blender thing, fill it with milk and blitz.
[You could also use a blender, but that's why i love the magic bullet because you have to wash far less dishes!]
SOOOO easy! And because it's all frozen, it turns into a sort of a smoothie frappe. VOILA!!!
You can also try this with any fruit/ yoghurt combinations you have on hand. Other ideas to add to the bag might be:
- passion fruit pulp
- tinned fruit
- flavoured yoghurts
- fruit puree's frozen into cubes like the yoghurt concept
- blueberries
- paw paw
- kiwifruit
- a sprinkle of cinnamon
- mangoes
.........let your imagination take over and create!!!
Enjoy;

Great idea pre-preparing everything in the ziplock bags beforehand! I love my morning smoothies as well so should give this a try :) How great are those mini blenders.. I don't have the magic bullet but something similar and I use it every day or more!
