This smoothie has a good mix of protein, healthy fats, and fibre to keep you feeling fuller for longer.
With the addition of kefir or a probiotic yoghurt, you’ll also be helping to diversify your gut microbiome.

If you happen to feel like getting some extra greens in, try adding a handful of baby spinach leaves as well — you’ll hardly notice they’re there.
