Lots of Health Benefits

Also, it could be challenging to consume all the nutritious ingredients that you want in a day.

However, a breakfast smoothie is my solution to this problem.

Beneficial ingredients in this Tropical Breakfast Smoothie

Pineapple Core

You may already know that pineapples are rich in vitamin, enzymes and antioxidants. It is not only great for digestive system, but also low in calories. Therefore, pineapples are ideal for weight loss.

In addition to these health benefits, the core of pineapple is even more nutritious. It is anti-inflammatory, immune-boosting, great for hearth health. (Read More Here.)

Ginger

Another of my favorite ingredients to consume almost every day. Ginger is truly a little powerhouse. It is great for –

• Digestion
• Nausea
• Cold Relief
• Inflammation

 

Steamed then Frozen Cauliflower

Cooked vegetables are much easier on the digestive system compare to the raw ones.

The reasons I freeze cauliflowers

First, frozen fruit and veggies can thicken the texture of a smoothie.

Second, veggies and fruits last longer in the freezer.

Homemade Cashew Milk

I love making my own cashew milk. It not only is so easy to make, but also has no filler ingredients and yet so delicious and creamy.

Protein of Choice

My favorite is Vital Protein Collagen or Nuzest vegan protein (read more below).

Tips on Making a Healthy Breakfast Smoothie

A few main ingredients to make a healthy breakfast smoothie:

To begin with – Vegetables:

Yes, we are talking about sneaking in some vegetables without tasting it really. Also, it is great way to trick your kids, isn’t it?

I usually choose steamed then frozen veggies. They are easier to digest.

Fruit:

Fresh or frozen, fruit of your choice!

Dairy Free Milk

I am not lactose intolerant, but too much dairy does make me feel bloated. To make a palnt based healthy breakfast smoothie, I love using my homemade cashew milk. It is so creamy and nutty.

 

Protein

My go to proteins are:

Vital Protein Collagen Peptides

I usually use the original blue tub or the vanilla one.

Collagen is great for skin, hair, nail and gut health. I love using it in my smoothie and coffee as it doesn’t change the texture of the smoothie.

Plant Based Vegan Protein:

My favorite is Nuzest. I really like this brand because the ingredients are so clean. One of my go to use in my morning smoothie is the original one. The only ONE ingredient is pea protein. There is no filler, or anything that makes me bloated.

Don’t forget Toppings!

Last but not least, you have to put that cherry on top. A smoothie bowl isn’t complete without some crunchy toppings.

My favorite toppings are:

• Granola
• Coconut flakes
• Cacao Nibs
• Nuts
• More fresh or frozen fruits

 

Note about Smoothie Texture

I love my breakfast smoothie bowl thick and creamy. In order to achieve thick texture, use very minimum liquid. Blend on low speed first in a a high speed blender (I use Vitamix). Once most big frozen chunks are blended, slowly increase the speed.

Last Note about making a breakfast smoothie HEALTHY

Lastly, (I promise this is my last note)  – you do NOT want to overpack your smoothie. I know I talked a lot about how to pack it all in one bowl. But trust me you don’t want to over do it.

Not all the ingredients work well together, in terms of health benefits and flavor profile.

Keep it simple.
