I've been improving my diet and trying to start each day right with a smoothie.
So far, I've been pretty simple with mine: banana, strawberries or blue berries, yogurt, milk.
What do you like in yours?

Frozen banana Scoop of collagen protein powder Tablespoon of ground peanuts Teaspoon of cocoa powder Hand full of ice cubes Almond milk
Play around with the amount of each ingredient to adjust for taste and consistency. I like it to be thick like a milk shake so I go easy on the soy milk for example.This message has been edited. Last edited by: TXJIM,

Usually do 1 whole avocado and 1 whole banana, then tweak the rest to taste, but around 1 C blueberries. If you use almond butter, though, you might want to add a sweetener like agave nectar or honey, because, while it thickens the smoothie nicely, it sort of dulls down the other tastes. The avocado is the real key though and makes it super smooth.

sometimes a little touch of powdered cinnamon or nutmeg on top to spice up whatever's in the mix below, even now & then a small touch of flake B vitamin/brewer's yeast for flavor nuances.

That is a good blended recipe that I use from time to time. Tastes like pumpkin pie.
I also like: Oats Banana Peanut Butter Skim/Almond Milk Vanilla Protein Powder Cinnamon
and
Applesauce Cinnamon Nutmeg Allspice Vanilla Protein Powder Skim/Almond Milk Oats
But honestly, my typical one is usually pretty boring, consisting of a scoop of whey protein, a cup of coffee, and some skim or almond milk, shaken up in a blender bottle. It's just a caffeine and protein delivery mechanism, for mornings when I'm in a hurry and don't have time to prepare a more substantial breakfast.
