Smoothie Alert!!! This One Has Some Nutrients!!

If your life is anything like mine some mornings you need something that will fill you up and have the nutrients you need to feel like you had a good, healthy breakfast and you need it quick!  This is my go to smoothie recipe for mornings when I know I won’t have time to make anything more than a quick smoothie.  It has plenty of heart healthy fats so you will feel full and an abundance of other nutrients (especially Vitamin C) to keep your system humming at full strength.  Another thing about this recipe is that if you buy all the ingredients frozen all at once they tend to last you a long time since you are blending small amounts of several foods every time you make it.  Red maca powder is an herb that has a stimulating effect that is not related to caffeine.
