Healthy Breakfast Smoothie
I decided to make a instructional video about my most favorite healthy breakfast smoothie recipe. I have this smoothie about once a week and would do it more if I had the time every morning. This smoothie can be had anytime as a meal replacement so don’t let the breakfast title fool you. They whey powder makes this a tasty protein smoothie as well. The smoothie recipe is below the movie.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of frozen berries (blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and/or strawberries)
- 1 scoop of whey powder
- 1 Tbs. flaxseed oil
- 1Tbs. ground flaxseed
- 2 tsp. lemon juice
- 1 tsp. unsweetened cranberry juice
- 1 pack of Stevia
- 8 ice cubes
- 1 cup water
Blend until smooth and if needed you can add a few ice cubes to thiken it up. Make a little over sixteen ounces, so it will a good size to go cup and you can take a quick shot of the extra before you head out the door.
