HEALTHY BLUEBERRY BREAKFAST SMOOTHIE

A quick recipe I thought up while trying to decide what to eat for breakfast. Great if you are trying to figure out what to do with those blueberries in the fridge or freezer! Also great on-the-go! Delicious and includes many foods that are a great way to start your day! Many of the ingredients, except for the blueberries and yogurt, are optional and vary depending on your own taste. I love cinnamon and a thick, super-cold smoothie. This recipe is super versatile, and you can change it depending on dietary needs or personal preference. Have fun with it!

Tips:

  • Use fresh, frozen, or canned fruits and vegetables: Fresh fruits and vegetables are ideal, but frozen or canned options are also acceptable. If using canned fruits, be sure to rinse them well to remove any excess syrup.
  • Add a source of healthy fats: Healthy fats, such as those found in nuts, seeds, and avocado, can help to keep you feeling full and satisfied. They can also help to improve the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, such as vitamins A, D, and E.
  • Use unsweetened plant-based milk or yogurt: Unsweetened plant-based milk or yogurt can provide a boost of protein and calcium without added sugar. If you prefer dairy milk or yogurt, choose unsweetened or low-sugar options.
  • Add a scoop of protein powder: Protein powder can help to boost the protein content of your smoothie and keep you feeling full. Choose a protein powder that is made with high-quality ingredients and that is free of added sugar.
  • Sweeten your smoothie naturally: If you need to sweeten your smoothie, use natural sweeteners, such as honey, maple syrup, or stevia. Avoid using refined sugar or artificial sweeteners.
