Um, for about 6 years, we've had this for our pre breakfast most every morning. we switch it up sometimes, and this week I found an awesome article on different healthy smoothies to try, sO I'll post them if they're good. But this is what ours looks like every morning.
On bottom, about a cup of water, about 1/2 C cut up cucumber, some carrots, frozen mangos, an apple or two, a banana or two and a big handful of spinach....with flaxseed, and sometimes honey or agave.
I am trying to just do spinach and one other veggies and only 2 fruits. I like it when you can taste the taste more than just a billion tastes mixed. But this is what we had this morning...and it was great. The kids favorite is when I use frozen raspberries and lots of baananas, with spinach. Oh, I add ice too! And sometimes I throw half a can of coconut milk in there, or a box of coconut water for nutrients. The kids drink a cup of this before we start chores and have breakfast each morning.
I'm so excited, I'm getting a blendtec this weekend. So I'm looking for recipes! Where do you get flaxseed-do you get the oil or?
ReplyDeletenope, we use real flaxseed...I use that exact flaxseed that is on the link...you can subscribe and save (free shipping too) if you click on the link. That's the cheapest I've found it. Remember after you subscribe and save, it takes another 15% off.
