Healthy Smoothie Recipe
As a busy mom who is constantly rushing out the door, I needed an easy, healthy breakfast item I could make and possibly take with me when I am on the go. This is the recipe for the flat belly smoothie I make at least 3 mornings a week. Every ingredient is from the list of foods that fight belly fat. This smoothie keeps me full until I eat a small snack before lunch and is packed with good nutrients to start my day. There are many ways to change this recipe and make it more to your liking. Many people prefer yogurt in their smoothies so just cut back on the almond milk and add yogurt instead. Flaxseed and Chia seeds are a great way to add more vitamins and nutrients without compromising on flavor. This is also a great drink to give to your kids becuase not only does it taste great, they don't have to know there are green vegetables in the mix. My kids love these smoothies and avoid veggies at all cost.
Cook Time
Ingredients
- 1 Banana
- 1 Cup Almond Milk
- 1 Cup Baby Spinach
- 10 oz Bag Frozen Fruit
- Flaxseed, Optional
- Chia Seeds, Optional
- I take the frozen fruit out of the freezer about 5 minutes before preparing as this helps the blending process go easier.
- Blend almond milk, banana, and spinach first until completely mixed together.
- Next add half the bag of frozen fruit to the mixture until blended. Then add the second half of the bag until fully blended and there are no chunks.
- Finally, add the chia or flaxseed to the smoothie and enjoy!
