3 Delicious Smoothie Recipes That Make Dieting Easy
We all know how difficult it can be to stay on track with your dietary goals during the holidays – especially if you have a family that loves to cook! And when the new year approaches, many of us tell ourselves that things will get easier without so many delicious treats to tempt us. But as soon as the year begins, we quickly realise just how wrong we were! Everything tastes bland compared to the sugary, fatty and flavourful diet we’ve become accustomed to, and we find ourselves dreading the start of our strict new eating plan. This needn’t be the case! A healthy diet doesn’t have to be a boring one. So to prove our point, we asked our friends at Franke to do what they do best: flavour our world with their Wonderfully Tasty recipes.
Here’s what they had to share:
