    Hey catman. I think smoothies are a great choice for breakfast. I'm sipping one right now while listening to some tunes and I'm feeling pumped.

    I make high calorie smoothies so you can half or third the recipe if you're interested in making it.

    6 bananas
    giant handful of spinach
    1 small apple
    2 cups frozen mango
    2 cups frozen blueberries
    1 tbl chia seeds
    celery stalk
    20 oz water (to thin it out. personal preference.)

    Mine get loaded up: 1/2 banana, 1 cup spinach, 1/3 cup frozen mangos, 1/3 cup frozen berries (usually it's blueberry), 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt, and a single serving of each: chia seeds, ground flax seed, hemp hearts, bee pollen. Add unsweetened almond milk, water, ice cubes. Serves 2.

    Once you get yourself a base smoothie recipe you like it's easy to mix it up. Cheers!
