Healthy Breakfast Smoothie

Today I'd love to share a recipe (if you can call it that) I use almost every day. Sipping this nutrient packed power smoothie keeps me full til lunch, and I feel great every time I drink it. I know people always say that, but really. This is probably enough servings of fruits and vegetables to last me a decade. Because that's how it works, right? Now I can eat french fries for 10 years?

Protip: If you make a lot of smoothies, freeze your fresh greens. You'll preserve the nutrients and have a long lasting supply ready when you are.

Peach & Ginger Power Smoothie

Ingredients:
1 cup frozen mixed fruit
1/4 cup frozen peaches
1 banana
1/2 cup shredded or baby carrots
1 big handful spinach
1/2 inch fresh ginger root
1 cup almond/coconut milk
Splash of orange juice

The process is super simple. Throw it all in a blender and watch the magic happen. If you're having a hard time getting it to blend, add water.

If you like things a little spicier, I've had great results with a full inch of ginger root. Do you have a favorite smoothie recipe? I'd love some suggestions!

  2. I want to eat french fries for ten years. It's just more vegetable on top of these veggies, right?

    I'm so glad we're on the same page.
