Whole30 Shelby Smoothie #1

Even though Whole30 doesn't recommend drinking your foods, there are some days when it's just easier to make a smoothie. This is one of our go-to smoothie concoctions, as seen on our Whole30 Challenge Weekend Recap: How We Stayed Sane while Vacationing on Whole30. Click to read more!

Whole30 Shelby Smoothie #1

Equipped with my Nurtibullet in hand, I set out to make our first Whole30 compliant smoothie. In our breakfast smoothie, I included the following:

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 cup of strawberries

• 1 kiwi

• 1/2 banana

• 1/2 orange

• 1/2 avocado (this makes it smooth and creamy)

• 1 cup of power greens

• 1 tablespoon almond butter

• 1/2 cup ice

• 3/4 cup water (to help it mix better)

OTHER VARIATIONS TO ADD:

• blueberries (or any berries)

• apple

• pineapple

• carrots

• other fruit

• broccoli (fresh)

• other veggies

• chia seeds

• goji berries

• cinnamon

Note: I don't actually use measuring cups with smoothies, so this is just an estimate. The good thing with smoothies though, you never have to be exactly right. Just throw in what you like and voila! Instant healthy smoothie!
