Cinna-Vanilla Zucchini Smoothie

27 Sep Cinna-Vanilla Zucchini Smoothie

I said the other day that if I could only eat one food for the rest of my life it would probably be my smoothies. And I genuinely stand by that. They are so creamy, sweet, cold and satisfying that I probably have one every single day, if not two. I like to add frozen veg to mine to bulk them up and add to the creaminess, and this also means that after I have added all my favourite crunch granolas and cereals to it (cause lbh, it is ALL about the crunch), that it is not exceptionally high in carbs.

Two things I often add as well are vanilla essence and cinnamon as they're just delish flavour enhancers. So this smoothie has both of those, as well as the addition of frozen zucchini!
