I do not like to eat breakfast. Mostly because I'm never hungry in the morning time, and also because I'm usually in a hurry to rush out the door to get my daughter to school on time. Since I have a 6month old baby I am currently breast feeding it is important for me to eat breakfast, otherwise all my energy disappears pretty quickly. So something that works great for me is a fruit smoothie. I usually drink it and eat a piece of whole grain toast or a whole wheat bagel, I love this breakfast because its filling, quick and easy to make, tastes great and is healthy. So here is my favorite fruit smoothie recipe. You can add protein to it if you want or you can supplement the milk for almond or rice milk if you want to make it diary free. Enjoy!
Triple Berry Organic Smoothie
Ingredients:
1 organic banana
1 1/2 to 1 cup of organic milk(start with half a cup and add more if its too thick)
Handful of organic frozen strawberries
Handful of organic frozen raspberries
Small handful of organic frozen blueberries
2 to 4 organic frozen pineapple junks
Add milk into a blender, then add all frozen ingredients and banana. Blend to desired texture. Add more milk if it's too thick. Makes one large glass
Calories = 280 cal (estimate, a lot depends on the size of the fruit, could be a little more or less)
This estimate is also based off using 1cup of 2%milk.
