Breakfast Smoothie

My current favorite smoothie has so many ingredients in it but it's so good! The recipe is from a nutritionist named Brianna Hanratty. She had a little seminar at the school I go to and she shared this amazing recipe for a breakfast smoothie.
This smoothie will provide you with fiber, folate, iron, manganese, omega-3, potassium, protein, beta-carotene, vitamin C and B. It's a very long list of nutrients and that's a reason why I love it.


Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
  • 1/2 cup soy or almond milk
  • 1/2 banana
  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • 1/2 cup pineapple
  • 1/2 cup strawberries
  • 1-2 table spoons of flax, chia, hemp, or any good source of fiber
Blend everything until smooth and done! You have a delicious tasting smoothie for breakfast.
You can also put all the fruits in a plastic bag and freeze, so when you wake up you put everything into the blender and blend. Easy and fast.
