My Most Favorite Weekday Breakfast!

Picture

​"Never work before breakfast. If you have to work before breakfast, eat your breakfast first."
                             -Josh Billings

Every Monday thru Friday, I am jumping for joy when it's breakfast time. Five working days a week I eat the same tasty smoothie for breakfast.

Why you ask? It's just so ding, dang, darn delicious!

Also, because I can mix up the ingredient combinations to change the flavor slightly. Sometimes I use avocado and sometimes I prefer peanut or almond butter.  There's no wrong way to mess up this smoothie, so experiment and have fun with it! 

If you're currently not enjoying your daily breakfast or just need a change of flavor in the morning, then try this simple Balanced Protein Smoothie!

  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 scoop of protein powder (vanilla or chocolate)
  • 1/2 avocado or 1 tbsp nut butter
