Breakfast Smoothie

Even after all this time, there are still days I miss the breakfasts from my youth.

You know, cereal, toast, bagels, stuff like that.

On those mornings I usually bust out my dusty blender and shake up my favorite banana almond smoothie. It's got nut-butter and a whole banana, so it's really filling, and the seeds give it some texture which makes it seem like a hearty meal.

Takes about 5 minutes to prep and make, so it's perfect for those mornings you don't have tons of time. I had one for breakfast this morning and it held me over just fine until lunchtime around 1pm...

Dani's Breakfast Smoothie

Ingredients:

1 banana (as green as possible)
2 Tablespoons almond butter
1 cup almond milk or coconut milk
1 tablespoon sunflower seeds
1 teaspoon chopped cacao

Directions:

Throw it into a blender. Puree until smooth, and enjoy!

It's also good with a shot of espresso thrown in if you need the extra kick~
