I am typically an egg white or oatmeal for breakfast kind of gal. That is until I found the BEST smoothie ever! Well to me anyway. I find it fills me and provides me with energy throughout the morning. My friend Laura Lee Bloor (Tenacious Lee) created the original recipe. I tweaked it a bit for my own tastes. See what you think!
High Energy Smoothie
1/2 cup Greek yogurt
1/2 cup almond milk
1/4 – 1/2 cup water
honey to taste
cinnamon
1/4 cup rolled oats
handful of Kale
handful of carrots
1/2 cup – 1 cup frozen blueberries (also good with strawberries and cherries)
1 T Bee Pollen
1 T ground flax seeds
1 scoop green superfood powder
1 – 2 0z aloe (gel or liquid)
Process in blender for a few minutes.
This combination will provide you with protein, complex carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals and a TON of energy. Why bee pollen, flax seeds and aloe? Bee pollen has been shown to be able to rejuvenate the body, stimulate organs and glands and enhance vitality. Flax seeds are great for digestion and aloe will help you to better absorb the nutrients. Enjoy!
