- 1 cup berries
Method

- Add in 1 tablespoon of chia seeds for additional fibre.
Notes
- BBDiet protein powder is the practitioner-range product that is used to help increase the nutritional value of the smoothie without adding sugar. It may also help improve the texture and taste of the porridge. With the extra fibre, it also helps increase the sense of fullness that will keep you fuller for up to 3-4 hours.
- You may replace protein powder with 1 tablespoon of almond butter for additional protein.
