Fiber Breakfast Shake

Fiber breakfast shake

submitted by Suzanne Millar
Into a good blender add:

16oz water
1/2 frozen banana (I buy green bananas, slice them in half, freeze them, and use for shakes. Barely ripe bananas would work, too)
1 T chia seeds or flax seeds 
1 T almond butter
1/2 cup frozen raspberries ( I buy a flat of raspberries and put it straight into the freezer. Bam, frozen berries. So easy and cheap)
1/2 cup frozen blueberries
Huge, huge, huge handful of spring mix, spinach, kale, power greens, or arugula. Whatever greens you have will work!! 
Optional: if you feel brave, add 1 tsp of cinnamon, 1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper, and a squeeze of lemon. 

Blend all together. Pour into glass. Use a straw to drink. Helps get it down quicker. 

I've grown to love this shake for breakfast. So many fruits, nuts, vegetables in one meal!! You can use riper bananas, or different berries.
