Energizing Morning Smoothie Recipe

Any Season
2 Servings
Prep Time: 10 Minutes

Smoothies are a great way to increase your consumption of fruits, vegetables and fiber. If made with specific macronutrients, they can provide a nutritional balance of fats, protein, complex carbohydrates, helping to keep your blood sugar balanced, and your energy stable.

Nutritional Powerhouse: Chia seeds act as a natural scrub brush inside your intestinal tract. This scrubbing action helps with the elimination of waste in the gut, supports digestion and helps reduce unwanted inflammation in the bowel.

  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 small handful of fresh spinach
  • 1/4 avocado

  • pinch of cinnamon
  • Optional: 2 tablespoons hemp protein powder (or any preferred protein you have at home)
