Delicious Nutrient Dense Smoothie Recipes

Ready to upgrade your breakfast with tasty smoothies made with ingredients rich in macronutrients (protein, carbohydrates, and fats) and micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals)?!

Enjoy my favorite smoothie recipes that I have developed over the last 20 years as a nutritionist and chef. All of the recipes make 2 servings.

Here are the instructions for how to make each smoothie:

1. Add all of the ingredients into a high powered blender and blend for 2 minutes.

2. Consume half of the recipe for breakfast.

3. Store extra serving in a glass jar in the fridge and consume within 3 days.

Nutrient data for one serving of each recipe is compiled from USDA FoodData Central and CheckYourFood.com.
