Easy Strawberry Smoothie

I love breakfast.

It's one of my favorite meal times in the day. 

You can have something sweet or savory, or both.
It can be quick like a smoothie or time-consuming like cinnamon rolls.

Plus, when you have a great breakfast - it just seems to start your day off right.

Lately, breakfast has been the hardest thing for me to get going.

I don't feel like eating and when I do eat, I feel even worse.

Not only that, but I'm slowly running out of breakfast ideas that I haven't already made.

So what is there left to save the day?

Smoothies.

Personally, I think this version tastes a bit like Smoothie King's. It's creamy, thick, and flavorful.

Not to mention my daughter loves them.

They're easy enough for me to gulp down and be full without feeling the after effects.
And the nice thing about smoothies is that you can enjoy them any time of the day.

A lot of substitutions can't be made with this recipe.

I generally like to use coconut milk, but seeing as I was out - I opted for regular milk.

My strawberries and blueberries were already frozen which makes for a creamier and colder treat (thanks to an over abundance of summer bounty and sales).

I definitely recommend using frozen fruit.
Also, you can really use any variety of fruit for this recipe. It's incredible versatile.
Plain Greek yogurt will transform any smoothie.

Sorry for the lack of decent pictures, I was on a time crunch.
