This is what I have pretty much every day for breakfast. Recipe will make about a litre and a half to two litres so you can cut it down if you do not want to pound back that much smoothie, but its the way I like to do. Plus that way if someone else is around who wants some I can still have a good litre to myself.
2 cups Ceres or other 100% pure fruit juice (my favourite is Passion Fruit)
1 cup probiotic yogurt (I make my own but plain Olympic Organic is good)
1 cup cooked quinoa or oatmeal (I like to cook a bunch and leave it in the fridge)
1 cup frozen berries (blueberries, blackberries, strawberries, mixed or other)
1 or 2 bananas
1/4 cup of flax seeds
1 scoop (30-40 grams) of whey protein isolate
Put all ingredients in a blender and blend until everything is broken down.
I like to constantly vary the type of juice and berries used.
There are many benefits to this smoothie, an important thing is to always put the flax seeds in when you have quinoa or oats because the Omega 3's in the seeds will balance out the Omega 6's in the grains which can be inflammatory.
