Recipe Review: Breakfast Smoothie

Nov 2

By My Professor

Overview

I came upon this recipe during an alumni event I was serving for. My professor made it for the alumnus to try whilst she did a demonstration. In my opinion, it was a good breakfast smoothie. Both the regular and vegan versions were good when we finished them.

Recipe

This recipe was from my professor

Ingredients

Frozen mixed berries
Kefir, low fat Greek yogurt, or plant-based yogurt
Frozen banana
Honey
Nut butter or chopped walnuts
Vanilla Extract
Cinnamon (optional)

Substitutions

I used coconut yogurt instead of kefir

What I Liked

Simply Instructions, made it easier to assemble the smoothie
It’s not too sweet, the flavor balances out well
Very refreshing smoothie

What I would Improve

I would put an extra banana in than honey to make it naturally sweeter
Adding little to no honey is good
Depending on the texture I would recommend gauging how much yogurt you put in to acquire desired texture.

Final Thoughts

Honestly this smoothie was better than I thought It was going to be. Making the vegan version in my opinion was better because I didn’t like the kefir that was used in the recipe. Otherwise, I highly recommend this recipe to start the day right.
