Happy Sunday !
Start every day off right with a delicious and nutritious breakfast that is going to fuel your body and set you up for success. A healthy breakfast is essential for providing the energy and nutrients your body needs to kickstart your day. In the summer, I really love to start my day with a refreshing and nutrient-packed smoothie!
To create a healthy smoothie, gather the following ingredients:
1 small banana
1 cup mixed berries (such as blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries)
5 strawberries
1 small orange
1 scoop of a plant-based protein powder
1 tsp of Chia seeds (let them soak in water few minutes before adding to your blender)
These ingredients are not only delicious but also rich in essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
To add a burst of freshness, throw in a few leaves of mint. Mint not only adds a refreshing flavor but also provides various health benefits, including improved digestion and reduced inflammation.
To add some extra crunch and a dose of healthy fats, sprinkle some hemp seeds, shaved almonds, cashew nuts, and pecans on top. These nuts and seeds are packed with protein, fiber, and omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for a balanced diet.
Now let's talk about the macro-nutrients benefits of this wholesome breakfast. The small banana and mixed berries provide a good amount of carbohydrates, which are the body's primary source of energy. The plant-based protein powder adds a dose of protein, which is crucial for muscle repair and growth.
The orange and strawberries are rich in vitamin C, which boosts the immune system and promotes healthy skin. The hemp seeds, almonds, cashew nuts, and pecans add healthy fats that are necessary for brain health and the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins.
And Including Chia seeds in your smoothie adds a nutritional boost, increases the fiber content, provides essential fatty acids, and contributes to overall well-being.
Overall, this healthy breakfast smoothie is a powerhouse of macro-nutrients. It provides carbohydrates for energy, protein for muscle repair, healthy fats for brain health, and a variety of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants for overall well-being.
So, why not start your day on a healthy note by enjoying this delicious and nourishing smoothie?
It's a simple and convenient way to give your body the nutrients it craves and set yourself up for a productive and energized day ahead!
