Sweet & Creamy Thick Shake
When you feel like a thick shake, forget loading up with a tonne of sugar and artificial flavours. This sweet and creamy thick shake has been shared with us by Monica Falconer from Mixing with Monica, and it has a secret ingredient– sweet potato! If you want to add some more veggies to your diet, this one is for you. Set aside some of the steamed sweet potato from dinner the nightbefore and for breakfast you can have a deliciously healthy thick shake, ready to go!
