Some days, it’s tough to get out of bed. It’s even tougher to pretend like you’re bright and shiny as you proceed throughout your day. I know when I wake up sluggish, it’s going to be rough. So, yesterday, I whipped up a concoction that I knew would make me feel better. I know that I have limited time in the morning with giving Noke a walk, feeding everyone, and getting myself ready so I can’t make a four-course breakfast during the week. My breakfasts need to be quick–but enjoyable! Luckily for me, we have a blender. This kick-butt morning smoothie will awaken, energize, and leave you feeling light and airy for the day. There’s no heaviness to it–very simple and delicious.
- 1/2 cup mixed berries (I use frozen)
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup cranberry juice
- 1/2 banana
- 1 scoop unflavored protein powder
- 1 tbsp olive oil (for good digestion--not obligatory)
- Mix all ingredients together in a blender. Blend to your liking--the longer you blend, the smoother and thinner it will be
*Question of the Day: What’s your favorite smoothie?
