Breakfast Smoothie

I can't believe after all these months that I haven't yet put a smoothie recipe on this site...especially since we drink a smoothie most days for breakfast. In fact, most days these are the first words out of my daughter's mouth each morning..."Can we make a smoothie?" This is just one variation, you could add/change anything to your taste. Here's one of our favorites:

1 banana
1 cup frozen strawberries
1 cup frozen mixed berries
1 cup fresh spinach
1 tbsp raw cocoa powder
1-2 tbsp MILA (raw whole chia seeds)
Coconut or Almond Milk to taste
2 eggs/protein powder

Blend until smooth. This makes enough for 3 large glasses, and it fills me up for several hours! We have also tried different fruits, kale, nuts, flax seed, and more...you can really do anything with these smoothies. We buy our frozen berries at Sam's Club in bulk so we get a better deal...you could also buy large amounts of fresh fruit during the Summer (farmer's markets) and freeze it for later use!
