Share this light refreshing green smoothie and enjoy it with your breakfast. Even if you drink the whole thing yourself, it has less than 150 calories which still leaves room for something like avocado and cottage cheese or eggs and toast or porridge to fill you up! How about some coconut oil on your grits? The choice is yours.
If you are vegan or not a breakfast person, you may prefer to skip all that and just want to drink a healthy and filling breakfast smoothie before hitting rush hour. If so, you will need to augment this recipe slightly.
To get the protein your body requires for fuel, try adding some oats and chia seeds or flax seeds for some healthy fat. Remember your body requires fat to help it absorb fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K. If you are not lactose intolerant try subbing milk for some of the water.
The recipe is from Sprouts Farmers’ Market website.
