How my morning routine changed my life
Implementing a morning routine into my day has brought me so much joy, clarity, and focus to my day. I have learned to start my day by doing something for myself before I give to others. One of the ways I start my day on the right foot is by eating/drinking something nutritional. I love having a smoothie with fruit, healthy fat, spinach, water, non-dairy milk, or plant-based yogurt.
Why you’ll love this Avocado Banana Smoothie recipe
- Healthy breakfast: This smoothie is light, creamy, and makes for a delicious healthy breakfast recipe.
- Quick & Easy: It comes together in less than 5 minutes.
- A green smoothie that tastes good: Adding bananas, berries, and any tropical fruit will take your smoothie from good to great.
Avocado Banana Smoothie Ingredients:
- Avocados are high in fiber, monosaturated fats, and rich in folates. Adding this ingredient to your weekly meals will add flavor and nutrients.
- Banana: It’s best to use frozen bananas as they add extra creaminess. To freeze your bananas, let them ripe, peel them, slice them into pieces and add them to a freezer bag. Freeze overnight.
- Greens: I use mixed greens in this recipe, but you can use any greens of your choice. Such as spinach or kale.
- Water: Oftentimes, I make my smoothies with water vs non-dairy milk. I view it as a way to drink more water. It doesn’t taste watery as the frozen fruit makes the smoothie thick and creamy.
- Protein Powder: I use the Garden of Life organic protein powder. It’s grain-free, vegan, and gluten-free.
- Hemp Seeds: This ingredient is optional but a must in all my smoothies. Hemp seeds are rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Both fats are known to improve heart health.
- Frozen Fruit: This is optional, but I usually add a variety of berries or tropical fruit.
How to make this avocado smoothie recipe
Step 1: Add the banana, greens, avocado, fruit, protein powder, and water to the blender.
Step 2: Blend on high until everything is combined and smooth. Pour into a glass and top with hemp seeds.
