There’s nothing like going outside in an early morning drizzle, picking spinach you’ve grown yourself and popping back into the kitchen to turn it into a body and soul-nourishing smoothie.  #yum!

Today’s smoothie is ultrahealthy:

• 1 cup homegrown organic spinach
• 1 cup organic kale (growing it, but it’s not quite ready yet so picked up at farmer’s market last week)
• 1 cup broccoli florets (I like, but DH says they make it taste “too much” like veggies)
• 2 tablespoons chia/flax/canary/hemp seeds mixture (I buy all of these separately and put them in one container in order to get all the goodness with each smoothie)
• 3/4 scoop vegan protein powder
• 7 raw almonds
• 1/2 cup frozen blueberries (DH picked wild last year)
• 1/2 cup frozen blackberries (DH picked last year from yard and roadside)
• 1/2 organic cinnamon stick (you can use ground cinnamon if you have)
• water to desired consistency (I use 6-8oz)

Put all in my Nutribullet (they have several versions, this is my favorite) and 35 seconds later…heaven!  A quick breakfast (seriously, longest time was going outside to pick the spinach) which gives me plenty of energy, helps to keep my blood sugar stable and will hold me easily until lunch.
