If you’re in a rush but you want a blast of good nutrition, you can’t go wrong with a smoothie. All you need is a blender to make one of these three satisfying flavor combinations on a busy morning. I don’t like to start my morning with a huge blast of sugar, so I omit the maple syrup and bananas from my smoothies and opt for more subtle flavors. For protein, you can add a raw pastured egg, or pair your smoothie of choice with cooked eggs or breakfast sausages. The longer you’re on the Paleo diet, the sweeter simple smoothies like this will taste to you. These smoothies and other great fun breakfast ideas can be found in my book, Paleo Lunches and Breakfasts on the Go.
- ½ can coconut milk
- 1 cup water
- 5 ice cubes
- 1 cup ripe musk melon or cantaloupe
- ½ tsp cardamom
- ½ tsp ginger
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ⅛ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 raw pasture raised egg (optional)
- Combine all in a blender or in a tall quart container with an immersion blender. (I use the second method because it’s a little easier to clean up). Pour and enjoy.
- 1 cup frozen blueberries
- ½ can full fat coconut milk (mix the cream with the coconut water)
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 cup water
- Juice of ½ a lime
- 1 raw egg (optional)
- Blend all of the ingredients until smooth. That’s it!
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- 1 ½ cups diced watermelon
- ½ can full fat coconut milk
- 10 mint leaves
- Juice from ½ lime
- Blend all ingredients together in a blender. Enjoy!
Yes please.
