It's official - we are in love with chocolatey-hazelnutty Nutella. So adding it to a dessert worthy smoothie was a no-brainer. Finish with chopped almonds and this recipe will be prettier than an ice cream sundae.

Grape Smoothie
Grapes are typically left off the smoothie list - but we think these little fruits high in vitamin C and potassium deserve a good mix. Here we've combined them with tangy yogurt, milk and sweet honey.
