My 'Go-To' Breakfast Smoothie

IMG_0263.JPG

If you follow me, you are guarantied to see this dark green concoction featured on my story…in rotation. But this ‘dark green concoction’ is pretty much the only reason I get out of bed every single morning. One of my biggest priorities is to always start my day with clean, vitamin-packed breakfast that will keep me satisfied throughout the day, without fail. Not only does this smoothie check off all the “vitamin + mineral” boxes for the day, It is also super anti-aging, fiber and protein rich, and gives me the biggest boost of energy (… without the crash later). Here is the ‘How-To’.

Serving size: 1

INGREDIENTS (All Organic)

  • 1/4-1/2 Frozen Banana

  • Large handful of Kale ( I probably use 2 cups)

  • Handful of Spinach ( I probably use 1 cup)

  • 1/4 of Cucumber, sliced, skin on (easier to blend, more fiber)

  • 2 ribs of celery (optional: I only add this if I need to eat the celery before it goes bad or I’m in the mood. If you hate the taste celery, add less or none at all)

  • Protein powder of choice ( I use 2 TBSP of organic hemp protein)

  • 1 tsp of Spirulina powder

  • 1 TBSP nut butter of choice ( I use Nuttzo organic paleo power fuel crunchy butter… try this and you will never go back)

  • 1 pitted date

  • Liquid of choice ( I just use water)

Toppings (optional):

  • Cacao nibs

HOW TO MAKE

  • Place all ingredients into blender and blend until smooth

    • Optional: I love my smoothies super thick so after everything is blended,

      I add a ton of ice cubes and blend until smooth.

  • Add cacao nibs on top

  • enjoy!
