This is the morning smoothie I make on days when I'm working and busy. I like it because it contains a good amount of protein (27+ grams, which keeps my blood sugar steady throughout the day), contains about 2 servings of fruit and is so rich in phytonutrients.
Essentials:
-2 scoops of Mediclear by Thorne; this is a rice based protein that is well tolerated even by most people and is suitable for dairy-free, gluten-free diets; it is also a multivitamin-mineral blend. (if this will be a main source of protein, I suggest adding a few scoops of Hemp Protein as well to get all the essential amino acids)
-1/2 - 1 cup of blueberries and strawberries; organic only specially for strawberries; they also contain a lot of fiber an anti-oxidants
-sometimes 1 banana for taste/texture; a dash of honey for taste; and I use a greens-powder drink if I remember
-Mix in a blender with water or rice milk to desired consistency
Variations:
You can add 1/2 very ripe banana to thicken consistency if desired
