Not sure about you, but Iām the type of person who NEEDS something to eat first thing in the morning. Ever heard of hangry (a.k.a when someone gets angry because theyāre super hungry)? Yep, itās a real thing. Just ask my relatives. It isnāt pretty. With that said, I donāt like spending tons of time prepping things for their sake or mine.
I likes recipes that are easy to make first thing in the morning to get my metabolism going. Healthy breakfast smoothies are perfect for this!
The following healthy breakfast smoothies do the trick. They donāt take much time to make and are healthy. Thank to Jeaninne Donofrio @LoveandLemons for providing these. Prep fruits and veggies ahead of time to make blending these healthy breakfast smoothies a breeze on busy mornings.
Below are the ingredients and instructions for how to make five different smoothies. Give them a try and let us know which one is your favorite!
