Refuel in heroic fashion after your workout with this green smoothie

When you’re training frequently, having a good-quality post-workout smoothie recipe in your back pocket is a must.

This recipe will satisfy on both counts. It contains the protein required to rebuild your aching muscles, along with a variety of vitamins and minerals from a range of fruit and veg. And it definitely ticks the tasty box.

It’s the kind of recipe you can imagine an A-lister using – and wouldn’t you know it, this green smoothie has been created by chef Sergio Perera, who sorts out meals for Chris Hemsworth when the Aussie actor is preparing for a film.
