How to make a Healthy Breakfast Smoothie Recipe

[lauamortegui]

to prepare any smoothie is necessary to use frozen fruit??? or it could be fresh fruit?

Vitamix blenders are definitely great blenders, we sell them, as well.

I've been trying to develop the perfect meal for several years now. I think you've solved that problem for me. This is about as perfect a meal as one can get. All the key ingredients are there for healthy eating. I'm going to add a tsp of cayenne pepper, instead of the cranberry juice, to see how that comes out.

I think smoothies are great! If you don't have much time to eat in the morning, make yourself a smoothy and drink it on the way out to work. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and this is awesome if you are looking for something tasty. Smoothies are also great for snacks.

I dont understand why you only choose organic for like of your items. Kinda defeats the purpose of eating organic because those berries are drenched in pesticides.

[jwardmagic07]

@DannyLrides Organic is not just about free of pesticides. It's about getting the highest nutritional balance. Fertilisers and phosphates bind to minerals in soil making them not bioavailable to plants that arent organic.  It is hard enough to meet teh RDA's which are there as a MINIMUM to not get diseased, so the more organic the better.

@supraguy2jzgte ffs, that's my point!

[jessomglol]

Looks delicious minus the whey powder.

[eitansl]

How can healthy food come out of bottles,box and freezer no fresh veg or fruit

interesting...but i agree that it would taste gooood

[MultiCoolman97]

mmmmmm looks good

[lindashg]

im pregnant, so can i drink this?

[jessomglol]

@lindashg

no need to be consuming any kind of dairy products or bi-products such as whey (ESPECIALLY non-organic.) while pregnant.

this shake minus the whey would be a perfect pregnancy smoothie :) add some greens in there to make it even better!

[indian838]

true

[indian838]

how come protein/powder drinks are important to get a good body? because i mean my dad doesn't let me drink protein drinks, and like yea he think its just unnatural or something but yea any other ingredient instead of that?

[kronosecw]

Long and short; your body needs protein to build muscle. People use protein powders to make diet easier. Instead of eating 10 egg whites (about 30g protein), you can add a scoop to your smoothie. There is nothing unnatural about it.

[chrisplus23]

your body needs amino acids. Not protein. Look it up.

[Phunct]

@chrisplus23 Protein is made up of amino acids

[chrisplus23]

@Phunct thats exactly my point.

[supraguy2jzgte]

@chrisplus23 amino acids make up protein!!! lol look it up

[vinnys025]

@kronosecw There's nothing unnatural about animal protein in a powdered form coming from a huge tin can?????....lol.

[StarFlower99654]

another variation would be to nix the whey and use young coconut kefir and a handful of greens ie: spinach, kale, romaine and instead of the stevia use a pear or peach.

[dev729]

very nice video. I wil try and make one of these smoothies, they look nice!

[neilsigno]

Food recipes, who would ask how to make a snack? Is this better than a 40 page cookbook? I say this is better than adult material.

[jani0067]

I agree with almost everything you say about smoothie making, but I have one few comments. Freezing your fruit can reduce the ice cubes needed. Using carrot juice is a great source of vitamin A. Also, using pineapple juice diminishes the need for a sweetner. Yogurt is also good to use for some added protein.

[byronshell]

jani- yes, that is true, but with this smoothie the frozen fruit and 8 ice cubes makes for a perfect consistency, at least for me. Good idea on the pineapple for sweetness.

[isaachaze1]

yea, i like using yogurt and sometimes some frozen sherbert (or sorbet i guess is what it is)
