Smoothies are one of my favorite meals in the whole word, so when I was thinking about the recipes I wanted to make for the series, I knew I had to make a smoothie for you guys, and it's amazing! I used my 3 favorite fruits: berries (I used strawberries), bananas and mango.
I usually have 2 to 4 cups of green smoothie for breakfast, it depends on how hungry I am, but you can make smaller or bigger smoothies, it's up to you! When I have a smoothie in the morning, I don't eat anything else because I eat until I'm full and I prefer not to combine fruits with other meals, only with greens and raw veggies.
Smoothies are so convenient because they're ready in 5 minutes, you can keep them in a jar and drink them on the go. Freshly made smoothies are better, I know, but if you can't, it's okay to make yours the night before or when you wake up. It will lose some nutrients like vitamin C, but it's better than a donut or any other unhealthy processed food. ?

Tips:
- Feel free to use any berries or fruits you want.
- If you don't like or can't find lamb's lettuce, use any other leafy green instead. I also love spinach because it has a neutral flavor.
- I usually use water, but if you use some vegetable milk, the smoothie will be creamier and also will taste better, especially if you're not used to eat fruits and veggies.
- Lucuma is an optional ingredient. You can add any other superfood or just don't add anything.

Surely you have to have more then a smoothie for breakfast. I try to eat 500 calories for breakfast to make sure I don't run out of energy half way through the morning and feel faint from low blood sugar.

Hi Shirley! That depends on the person, I think! Some people prefer to eat less for breakfast or even don't have breakfast and others prefer to eat a lot for breakfast 🙂 Have a nice day!
