[Foodie Friday] Skip the Pop Tarts and McMuffins. Try This Instead!

Want something quick to take on the go for breakfast?  Skip the pop tarts and McMuffins...those things are killing people slowly!

I hear people say all the time that smoothies take too much time to make; they'd rather just warm up or unwrap something.  

Not Cool.  Here's your new game plan:

Prep some protein smoothies for the week and keep them in the fridge or freezer until it's time to blend.  Not only do they taste great, but they are a complete balanced meal that will keep you full until lunch, or your mid morning snack.  

Not quite sure how to put it together?  
​
Here's your cheat sheet:

---

A) Bag or Jar Multiple Servings for the Week:

1) 1 Handful of Veggies: Leafy Greens, Cucumber, Pumpkin, ​or Greens Powder)
2) 1/2 Cupped Handful of Fruit​​: Berries, Bananas, and Tropical fruits usually work best.
3) Thumb sized portion of Fat: Nuts, Seeds, Nut Butter, Coconut Oil.
4) Optional Adders: Coconut, Cinnamon, Ice.
5) Optional Carbs, for Post-Workout: Oats, Quinoa, Clean Granola.

---

B) Add these items, the morning of:
 
1) 8 oz. of Liquid: Milk, Nut Milk, Water, Coffee, Iced Green Tea.
2) 1 Serving of Protein Powder.  My favorite is ONNIT Dolce Whey.

---

C) Throw all ingredients in a blender for 1-2 minutes until smooth.

I personally have many variations that I love, 
but here's my all-time favorite:
​
1) 1 Scoop Dolce Whey Protein Powder
2) 1 Handful of Kale, Spinach, and Cucumber
3) 1/2 Cupped Handfull of Strawberries and Pinapple
4) 1 Thumb sized portion of Chia Seeds
5) 8 oz. Unsweetened Coconut Milk
6) 4 Ice Cubes

Enjoy!
