morning smoothie

i read a book by dr. frank lipman called spent, now called revive.  my husband and i changed our morning routine by making smoothies for breakfast and have never looked back.  we both feel so much better for it....all you need is a blender and the ingredients below.

blueberry avocado smoothie (recipe from revive):

1 cup frozen organic blueberries
1/4 avocado
1 cup coconut water
juice of 1/2 a lime
1 tablespoon of agave syrup
1 serving or 3-4 tablespoons vanilla or plain whey protein powder
1 serving or 2 teaspoons greens powder
4 ice cubes

i have never added the agave or the ice to this shake and still find it delicious and sweet.  coconut water is not always in our home and, on those mornings, i substitute water and it is still yummy.  we use whey to go as our whey powder and green vibrance as our greens power, but any brand that your prefer works...just make sure that there is no added sugar listed in the ingredients of the whey protein powder.

the recipe is easy to double if you are making more than one.  it is the perfect breakfast for people who have limited time to in the morning and need to have a breakfast on the go.

enjoy!
