  • Peanut Butter and Banana: A sweet and filling choice, especially for kids. Spread peanut butter and add banana slices.
  • Cream Cheese and Smoked Salmon: For a more gourmet touch, use cream cheese and smoked salmon, perfect for brunch or special occasions.
  • Tuna Salad: Make a simple tuna salad with canned tuna, mayonnaise, and chopped vegetables for a classic option.
  • Egg Salad: Whip up an egg salad with hard-boiled eggs, mayonnaise, and a hint of mustard for a creamy filling.
  • Avocado and Bacon: If you love avocado and bacon, this combination is a winner. Add crispy bacon strips to creamy avocado slices.
  • Mashed Chickpea Salad: Make a quick mashed chickpea salad with chickpeas, lemon juice, olive oil, and your favourite herbs and spices.
  • Greek Yogurt and Berries: For a sweet, healthy option, spread Greek yoghurt and add a variety of fresh berries like strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup oats
  • 1 tablespoon flax seeds
  • 1 ¼ cups soy milk or almond milk
  • 2 cups of greens of your choice (spinach, rocket, kale, watercress, etc.)

Instructions:

  1. Place all the ingredients in a high-speed blender and blend until smooth.

  3. Brush a large baking tray with oil and place it in the oven to heat for 5 minutes. Alternatively, you can bake on a silicone mat.
