So if you haven’t already noticed by now I am a BIG FAN of Trader Joe’s. All of the ingredients (except the protein powder) in this smoothie are from Trader Joe’s.  I have been making this for a little over a week now and I am seriously obsessed!! I have never been a big eater in the morning, but I know how important it is to eat a nourishing breakfast so that’s why I love this smoothie.  After playing around with some different ingredients I came up with this recipe, it taste delicious and it’s really good for your digestive system. It’s jam packed with fiber and nutrients and keeps you full well into lunch time! Sometimes I struggle drinking it all and have to take breaks. I have a Vitamix blender- you’ll need a strong blender for the oats and the apple to avoid getting a gritty taste.

Serving Size: This could easily be 2 smaller easily, I just make a large amount and sip on it to keep full for a late lunch.

Ingredients:

• 1 ripe banana
• 1 organic apple (cut)
• 1 bag of frozen organic strawberries
• 1/2 small ripe avocado
• 1 scoop of your favorite vanilla protein powder
• Sprinkle of cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon ground flax
• 1 cup of organic oats
• 1 tsp agave nectar
• 1 heaping tablespoon of almond butter
• 1 cup of coconut water (sometimes I have to add more for the perfect consistency)
• 1 very large cup!

**Place it all in a blender and turn on, pour into your favorite cup and enjoy!!
