The basis of all of my breakfast smoothies is: 1 ripe banana, 1-2 cups of greens (parsley, spinach, kale, lettuce), 1 cup of frozen fruit (blueberries, mixed berries, mixed tropical fruit, etc), 2 tbsp of high omega-3 fats (ground flax seeds, hemp hearts or chia seeds), and some liquid.
Banana-Parsley-Berry Smoothie
(makes 1 breakfast smoothie, 2 snack smoothies)
1 medium sized ripe/over-ripe banana
1 cup mixed berries
1 cup packed parsley, steams included
2 tbsp shelled hemp seeds (hemp hearts)
1 cup of cold water, or non-dairy milk (more if needed)
In a high powered blender, mix smoothie until uniform and all the berries are blended.
Note: some blenders don't have the ability to liquify greens, especially kale. Experiment with your blender and find its limitations. Depending on your needs, it may be valuable to get a strong and efficient blender to continue using for smoothies, soups, cashew creams, and other sauces.
