This morning was thick and gray and so was my mood. I don’t know why, but I just lacked all motivation to do anything or make any decisions. I didn’t want to decide even on breakfast. Usually, I cook eggs or make oatmeal or grits. Even making coffee was a challenge. Rummaging around looking for something easy, I found a bit of plain yogurt that was nearing its expiry date, some strawberries that we bought on Saturday at the Farmers Market that looked like they wouldn’t last much longer, some bananas that are getting a bit ripe. Not wanting to throw any of this out, a smoothie seemed the solution. To the banana, strawberries, and yogurt, I added a tablespoon of peanut butter for protein, a half tablespoon each of Chia seed and ground flax seed for omegas and fiber and whirred it up in the magic bullet.
A quick nutritious breakfast. What is your favorite or most creative smoothie?
