One of my favorite ways to start the morning is with a breakfast smoothies.
I have mentioned previously how much I LOVE my little bella (from Target-not online) aka my magic bullet knock off. It is the most convenient way to whip up a smoothie in a couple of minutes, and hardly has any dishes.
Here are some of my smoothie favorites. I tend to make them pretty healthy by adding spinach and flax seed in each one. Once you blend the ingredients together you cannot taste the spinach yet you are still receiving the amazing benefits of it.
I don't measure things when I make these smoothies, rather I just throw a bunch of stuff in. Also I tend to use frozen fruit, that way you don't have to crush ice prior to blending.
Very Berry Smoothie
Frozen Blueberries
Frozen Strawberries
Frozen Raspberries
Spinach
Flax seed
Water
Orange Juice
Dollop of Greek Yogurt
Put ingredients in, shake together, blend.
Peanut Butter Protein Smoothie
Frozen Banana
2 scoops peanut butter
Milk
Flax seed
Protein Powder
Strawberry Banana Raz
Frozen Strawberries
Frozen Raspberries
1 small banana (not frozen)
Spinach
Flax Seed
Milk
Greek Yogurt
These are some simple ways to make amazing breakfast combinations on to go. Be creative with your smoothies- they can be an amazing healthy breakfast if you do it right. Don't add sugar (the fruit is already very sweet) instead add orange juice to make it a little sweeter (and get a little vitamin C in there)
Enjoy!
