My Go-To Morning Smoothie

As always, all opinions are my own.

Weekday mornings can be hectic and rushed, especially after school begins, when
we're trying to get back into the swing of things. I allow myself plenty of time in the
morning, waking up two hours before I need to be at work, but somehow I'm always
rushing out the door.  Probably because I try to get too much done before I leave, but
there's so much to do! #momproblems

When I'm running late and there's no time for breakfast, my go-to is a healthy protein
smoothie that I can drink during my commute or when I get to the office. Most often
my smoothie includes frozen banana, chocolate protein powder, flax seed, almond
butter and almond milk. Sometimes I throw in a few frozen berries too.



I've been using a Vitamix Explorian Series e310 blender for about 3 months now and I
just love it. It makes homemade salsa, sauces, milkshakes and more in just seconds!
I was recently given the opportunity to try the Vitamix Personal Cup Adapter, as well
as a nut butter kit and it has been a game changer for my busy weekday mornings!
It's so easy to use and clean up is a breeze! You can put the blender cup in the dish
washer or with a drop of dish soap and warm water, your Vitamix can clean itself
in 30-60 seconds - no disassembly required!

The dual-purpose container with lid doubles as a drink cup and blender container.
Double wall insulation keeps my smoothie nice and cold on my drive to work.

My friend Dianna, made vanilla chai almond butter with her Vitamix personal cup
adapter. I can't wait to try her recipe!
