Breakfast Smoothie (C2)

Breakfast Smoothie (C2)

Recipe Author: Simmie Sinow

A great smoothie to go along with your breakfast!  Shown below, this comes to 460; if you eliminate the oil, it's 400 calories.

3/4 cup Kefir (or yogurt)
2 cups blueberries (I use frozen)
1 Tbsp flaxseed meal
1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder
1/2 Tbsp olive oil (optional)

I use frozen blueberries and microwave them just a bit -- about 1.5 minutes, to soften them from being rock hard when blending them.

Put all the ingredients in your blender and let it go!

What you wind up with is a thick smoothie.  If you use yogurt, I'd recommend using some oil to give it a creamier consistency.

This is both of your fruit servings for the day; obviously, you can make this with only 1 cup of blueberries and save your other fruit serving for later.
