Summer !! Summer !!

  1. Sunscreen - Checked
  2. Scarf - Checked
  3. Water bottle - Checked
  4. Health - Ummm

God knows what not we need to keep adding to the checklist to be safe in Summer. Summer in Bangalore these days are terrible. I can’t imagine a greener city of Bangalore has hosted so many concrete plans that the mercury is rising like anything.

More than solid and spicy food; cold and comforting drinks are soothing the summer moments. Early morning is so sunny that small bowl of cereals is no more a healthy or comforting option. Nutrients, hunger and comfort were playing a puzzle on my mind, when my eyes got struck to the apple in the fridge.

An apple a day keeps the doctor away !! But if the doctor is handsome throw it away !!

Huh !! No option to take a glance at the doc when your husband is on the way !!

All these mischiefs and fun lead to the amazing discovery of Crunchy Apple Smoothie. Eureka !!

Chef’s Tip: As soon as you cut the apple, grind it and serve it. Exposing in the air gets apple oxidized which is an unhealthy option to consume.
