Mornining Routine

Smoothie

I'm starting to get in the habit of this thing called eating healthy. No more carbed-up bagels or some Nutella on toast - Hey I like Nutella, don't get me wrong. It's just not the breakfast of champions. So what am I having in the morning? A wonderful concoction of things found in the crisper! It really isn't that hard to eat right. No excuses! But  here comes an excuse, I don't have the patience to measure out a cup of this a 1/2 tsp of that. I just tend to measure by eye. Lets make things simple in the morning.

My recipe:

• 1 Banana
• Handful of blueberries
  rich in anti-oxidants, vitamin C, vitamin B complex, vitamin E, vitamin A, copper  (a very effective immune builder and anti-bacterial), selenium, zinc and iron  
• Black Berries
• Handful of Spinach (vitamin K, vitamin A, magnesium, folate, manganese, iron, calcium, vitamin C, vitamin B2, potassium, and vitamin B6 )  
• Half a cupish of plain yogurt
• Splash of OJ
• 5ish Ice cubes
• 1 spoonful of flaxseed  (rich in protein, fibre and essential nutrients, including iron, niacin, calcium, vitamin E and phosphorous. Also provides essential omega-3 fatty acids)

This keeps me pretty full in the morning too and I feel better knowing I started my day out on a healthy note.
