Ingredients in this Tropical Breakfast Smoothie
Ginger
Another one of my favorite ingredients to consume almost every day.
Steamed then Frozen Cauliflower
I love storing already cooked cauliflower in the freezer:
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.
You can find the recipe Here.
Protein of Choice
My favorite is Vital Protein Collagen or Nuzest vegan protein.
Tips on Making Breakfast Smoothie
A few main ingredients to make a 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.
Fruit:
Fresh or frozen, fruit of your choice!
Dairy Free Milk
Too much dairy does make me feel bloated. To make a plant-based breakfast smoothie, I love using my homemade cashew milk. It is so creamy and nutty.
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.
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 the best smoothie
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 overdo it.
Not all the ingredients work well together.
Keep it simple.
