Most mornings, I opt for a smoothie for breakfast. There is just something about starting my morning with a big glass of high nutrient dense foods. Perhaps it’s because a smoothie is an easy thing to down right after my morning run when I am often pressed for time. There are no exact measurements and most anything will work in a smoothie. It’s just a matter of personal preference and fruit availability.
Ingredients:
- 1 apple (red delicious is best due to it’s high antioxidant value)
- 1 peeled orange
- 2 T ground flax seed
- ½ C frozen grapes
- ½ C frozen pineapple
- ½ C frozen berries
- Frozen spinach
- Apple or grape juice – enough to allow processing
Preparation:
- Blend well in Vita-Mix or blender until creamy. This makes two large glasses.
