·                            v  pola glavice kelerabe

v  2 srednje jabuke

v  1 banana

v  1 veći kivi

v  1 veća pomorandža

v  1 i po čaša vode

Kupiti veću glavicu kelerabe i iseći na pola. Jednu polovinu iseći na komade i staviti u blender zajedno sa oljuštenim jabukama (ukoliko su domaće oprati ih i ne ljuštiti), takođe isečene na komade. Dodati kivi, pomorandžu, šargarepu i 1 i po čašu vode, može i manje ako želite da vam sok bude gušći. Izblendirati i popiti odmah. Ukoliko ne možete popiti odmah odložiti ostatak u frižider i piti u toku dana, ne bi trebalo da stoji duže od par sati.

Šta dobijate od ovakvog napitka?

Keleraba je rudnik gvožđa i vitamina C. Ona ima minimalno kalorija, a daje osećaj sitosti, jača imunitet, reguliše metabolizam, neutrališe dejstvo slobodnih radikala, snižava holesterol.

Šargarepa je bogata beta-karotenom, a osim za vid odlična je i za detoksikaciju organizma jer sadrži velike količine vlakana i vitamina A.

Sveža jabuka, uzeta na prazan stomak, omogućava organizmu da brzo upije iz nje hranljive i lekovite sastojke. Jabuka je sastavni deo raznih dijeta za mršavljenje. Zahvaljujući sadržaju netopljivih vlakana – pektina, koja bubre u kontaktu sa vodom i tako rastežu creva, jabuka stvara osećaj sitosti. Prosti šećer fruktoza zadovoljava želju za slatkim, a pri tome ne dovodi do većeg porasta šećera, glukoze, u krvi, niti značajnije stvaranje hormona insulina, koji bi šećer pretvarao u masno tkivo. Novija istraživanja pokazuju da taninska kiselina jabuke onemogućava taloženje masti u jetri.

Pomorandža sadrži obilje vitamina C, B, provitamin A, kao i vitamin E. Od minerala posebnu važnost ima kalcijum ali i magnezijum, kalijum i fosfor i vitamin C.

Kivi je bogat vlaknima, vitaminima C i E, kalijumom. Sadrži znatnu količinu magnezijuma, minerala važnog za rad kardiovaskularnog sistema. Bogat je izvor antioksidanasa jer sadrži karotenoide, lutein, flavonoide i hlorofil.

Banane su dobar izvor vlakana, kalijuma, vitamina C, ugljenih hidrata, vitamina grupe B, vitamina E, magnezijuma, gvožđa, kalcijuma, bakra.

SRPSKI RECEPT OVDE

Ingredients:

v  500 g ready-made piecrust

v  500 g cherries

v  1 egg

v  1 cup semolina

v  1 cup oil

v  1 cup yogurt

v  2 cups sugar

v  1 teaspoon baking powder

v  1 teaspoon vanilla sugar

v  100 g chocolate

Preparation:

In a large bowl, combine semolina, oil, yogurt, sugar, egg, vanilla sugar and baking powder. Divide ready-made piecrust so that you have 4 crusts for each cherry roll.

Prepare them in the following way:

Spread the filling on the first crust, then put another crust over it and spread the filling on the second crust, too. Now, cover the second crust with cherries and continue with the third crust which you put over the cherries, spread the filling over it, too. At the end finish with the fourth crust on which you should also spread the filling. After you have finished roll the crusts together and make a roll out of them. Do the same with all the crusts making sure that each roll has four crusts.

Line the rolls one next to another into a baking pan previously greased. Sprinkle some oil over them and coat them with the filling if any was left. Put the baking pan into previously heated oven at 180 degrees Celsius and bake until the crusts become brown.

After you have taken them out of the oven, let them cool completely. Then, cut the rolls into cubes and pour hot chocolate over them.

P.S. If you don`t cut the rolls into cubes and if you pour chocolate over hot rolls, chocolate topping may crack.
