I drink a smoothie for breakfast almost every morning. I love mine loaded with frozen fruit, fresh baby spinach, almond butter, and almond milk. To that standard base I will add spices like cinnamon and ginger and power foods like avocado, flax, or chia seeds. I make my smoothie at night and refrigerate it so that grabbing it for breakfast in the morning is as easy as possible and I am able to snuggle in my warm bed for a couple extra minutes.
The first recipe I made from my "What Katie Ate" cookbook was her Strawberry, Banana, and Ginger Smoothie and not just because it was on the first page. I am always looking for new smoothie recipes and this one was perfect for the day after Christmas when I was trying to eat a little lighter.
