Green Smoothie, Sweet Potato & Granola Bowl

A smooth and only slightly sweet green smoothie, all dressed up with roasted veg and crunchy muesli. What a great start to the day.

• ½ cup roasted sweet potato cubes
• ½ cup toasted muesli or granola
• 2 tsp bee pollen, optional

COOK’S NOTES

• Slice up the other half of the orange, dice some apple or add a few strawberries to the bowl toppings if you’re craving fruit.
• If you can’t find a thin-skinned cucumber (ie Lebanese), peel before blending.
• The toasted muesli I had in the cupboard was loaded with puffs and seeds but no nuts so I added a few cashews too.
• Smoothie can be enriched with a scoop of pea protein powder, or sweetened with half a banana.
