My Go-To Morning Smoothie
I have about three or four favorite breakfasts I rotate through, and this smoothie is at the top of my list!
It always helps my tummy feel good, and it gives me what I need to feel focused for the day. Plus, it’s full of antioxidants and protein!
Ingredients:
1/4—1/2 cup full fat, grass-fed milk (or dairy alternative of choice)
3 frozen strawberries
1/4 cup mix of blueberries, raspberries and blackberries (fresh or frozen)
1/2 banana
1 scoop protein powder (I use 1st Phorm’s chocolate milkshake.)*
For a healthy fat option, you can put in 1/2 Tbsp of coconut oil, or you can take your fish oil supplement with the shake.
Directions:
Pour the milk into a Magic Bullet, Vita Mix or whatever blender/mixer you would like. (I love to use a single-cup mixer because I drink straight from the mixing cup.)
Add the protein powder and fruit, and then mix/blend for about 30—60 seconds or until the smoothie reaches your desired consistency.
Pour into a cup, and enjoy!
*Ideally, you want 18—25 grams of protein from your protein powder. If you do not want to use protein powder for dietary reasons, feel free to substitute full-fat Greek yogurt.
