I usually have a consistent breakfast with boilled eggs or omlette. But in the already crowded mornings i drink juice from carrot+red beet+apple, or a smoothie from spinach+banana+almond milk.
For smoothies I use a cup or 2 of spinach or kale. A scoop of protein and a cup of my favorite fruits (mixed berries). Blend for about 1 minute and good for the whole morning. How this helps.
Smoothies are great, that’s usually my go-to if I don’t have time for a full breakfast. I like to mix banana, dried oats, and peanut butter in with water or almond milk for a little bit of a sweeter and thicker taste. It’s also great to add your favorite protein powder or I use Boost from Tropeaka (an Australian company - bought online) because it gives me energy for the morning without having to splurge on coffee.

I like to use berries and fruit with either milk or nut milk in smoothies. Adding chia seeds adds extra protein too! Better yet, you can cut up all your ingredients ahead of time and keep them in the freezer as premade smoothie ingredients. If you’re looking to add more vegetables, fresh spinach blends in smoothies really well and adds some extra iron in your diet. “Simple green smoothies” has some tasty recipes, although I did find their health claims to be rather exaggerated sometimes. Just find ingredients that you like that sit well with your stomach, blend away, and enjoy! If you have any concerns about your stomach or digestion, or if you want some more advice on the best nutritional habits, don’t hesitate to talk to your primary care doctor and/ or a registered dietician nutritionist. I think you can also find RDN’s near you through the EatRight.org website (the website itself is a great research-backed, evidence-based resource for nutritional info, recipes, and tips for healthy eating and living made by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics). Happy breakfast to you! :)
Well talking about my experience rather than smoothie try having hot honey lemon water. It helps to develop appetite and it’s good to eat rather than having smoothie.
Hello fabulous friend! What I suggest is a banana smoothie (1 banana + 100 ml milk of your choice + 1/2 spoon peanut butter & honey for some protein kicks. Yes it’s filling. Pinterest has some great ideas for light morning smoothies too! Apart from that , this is my best suggestion to at least start off with. Best of luck!
Two options: 1. I use to mix orange juice with spinach, 1 tbsp of moringa, 1 tsp of spirulina (podwer), 1tsp of grenetine and ice. Sometimes I add cardamom and/or turmeric to change the flavor a bit. If you do not have time for breakfast can add an egg (it does not taste a lot but will give you more proteins than just the moringa). You can change orange juice for 1/2 green apple or other fruit. 2. Try milk (low fat or almond milk) with frost strawberries (or mix it with different berries) and 1 tbsp of oats flakes. Add 1tsp of vainilla and the sweetener you like. You can also change milk for 0 fat yoghurt and make it more sticky as a smoothie.
1/2 banana (frozen optional) 1/4 cup frozen strawberries 1/4 cup frozen mango Almond milk, add to your liking. (Less to make thick, more to make thin) Instead of of mango, you can also add peanut butter to make a PB&J smoothie
I don’t know of any smoothies, but in the morning it’s better to prioritize complex carbs, fat and protein, along with fiber, rather thsn sugar. So if you really want a smoothie, put something that contains those. You can eat fruit and sugary things, but keep the quantity low. What works for me (and not necessarily for you) is two eggs with cheese or some sort of meat that I enjoy, or olives.
