There are mornings so hectic that you don’t have time to make a breakfast or to eat it. There are mornings when you feel like something fast, so you grab a banana or an apple. If you know that next morning will be just like it, this is what you can do. Make a smoothie that is full of vitamins the night before, refrigerate it and drink in a morning. It’s a nice replacement for an apple of yogurt. And despise arugula, it taste great. I’ve found this recipe on The New York Times website and I believe they know their stuff. Make it, try it, love it.
You will need:
- ½ cup orange juice, freshly squeezed
- big handful arugula
- 1 tbsp walnuts, cut
- ½ pear, peeled
- ¼ tsp ginger
- 4 tbsp soy yogurt
Just place everything in blender and blend it baby!
Enjoy, Marta

I never tried arugula/rocket in this form before… I saw it baked into something the other day too and it made me curious as to how much the flavour changes as a result of the rocket addition – Will give it a try some time – I like the addition of pear, that sounds nice!

I’ve heard all this craze about green smoothies, but this one seems the most drinkable! I think I’ve been put off trying as the first time I heard about it was from a lady who struggles to get it down every morning!

So you actually do take a break sometime from your fancy breakfast meals for something simple. 🙂 Arugula in a smoothie is a new one for me. I bet the ginger add a lots of depth to this. Not the normal green smoothie. Delicious!

Nice combo of flavors. I used to make a lot of smoothies, but it’s been quite some time. Definitely need to try arugula in one – great idea!

I’ve added flat leaf Italian parsley to my blueberry smoothies, but never thought of arugula with pear. Lovely shade of green and looks delicious. Superfood power!
