Balanced Breakfast Smoothie
This smoothie is good morning post-practice/workout fuel, and it carries me until the end of lunchtime teaching. It’s tridoshic and has a touch of everything: anti-oxidants, anti-inflammatories, detoxicants, protein, minerals, fiber and water regulators.
- Handful of spinach
- 1-2 leaves kale or chard
- 2 sprigs parsley
- 5-7 mint leaves
- 1-inch cucumber slice
- 1/3 cup blueberries
- 3 figs
- Scant cup watermelon
- 2 Tbs rolled oats
- Protein power
- Splash almond milk or water
- Greens powder (optional)
- Cinnamon (optional)
Blend and enjoy!
Looking through your smoothies, this one looks great!! I may need to substitute an item, can you tell me were to get greens powder?
We have a Whole Food and grocery co-op that sells brands that good. I like to have at least two on hand to alternate. If you cannot find them, you could always go online. One of the brands that I like and that is readily available online, is Amazing Greens. I use their original Green Superfood and their detox variations. I tend to stay away from the flavored ones. The same goes for protein powders.
