Basic Breakfast/Power Smoothie with Variations image

I love Breakfast Smoothies. They are quick and with so many different ways to put them together, I decided to give out the basic recipe I go by and some of the variations I use. Instead of printing out 20 different recipes, this is a good place to start with one sheet of paper. Blend away!!
