Looking for a little reboot after all of the holiday eating? Why not try adding a green smoothie to your breakfast routine and get a healthy does of leafy greens to start your day. Below is a basic recipe for making green smoothies.
My favorite is to use half a frozen banana, a small handful of frozen blueberries, half a bunch of locally grown kale or chard, and nut milk for my liquid. I'll add fun things like chia seeds (great for the guts and very filling!) or bee pollen (great for the immune system) to bulk up the smoothie. If I want my smoothie to be a meal replacement, I'll add half an avocado or a table spoon of coconut oil. Green smoothies are super versatile and a great way to incorporate locally grown greens from the market into your breakfast routine.
