Save a dog


Healthy Breakfast smoothie

Found a great recipe for a filling & healthy breakfast smoothie & realized you could tweak it to your or your children's liking. My kids love this & how healthy, filled with vitamins & fiber?

I added:

1/4 cup quick cook oats
1 tbsp honey
a handful of chopped almonds
1tbsp wheatgerm
1/4 cup coconut milk
1 ripe banana
A few scoops of plain nonfat greek yogurt
8 frozen strawberries (instead of ice)

Blend in blender & serve!

You can also add/substitute other type of fruit: mango's, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, etc.

Use milk instead of coconut milk, or almond milk.

I sometimes add protein powder, chia seeds, flaxseeds, truvia (instead of honey),  

How quick & healthy for breakfast or a snack. Here's my son enjoying it for breakfast:
