Mornings can be so beautiful and peaceful in Cambodia. I just love them. Are you a morning person too? If not you are missing out on some amazing sunrises ;) And according to research, it is good for your health to be an early riser. Read my previous post about becoming a morning person HERE
Whether you are a morning person or not, a green smoothie for breakfast is alwways a good and healthy idea. Even if you like to sleep in. Adding one green drink to your daily life is the best way to: energize, cleanse, alkalize, nurture, and balance your body. Something as simple as adding one green smoothie to your daily diet will hugely benefit your overall health.
They are packed with: antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, protein, fiber, and many other disease- and fat-fighting phytonutrients.
A green smoothie and this view (see pic below) make an ideal morning for me. Couldn't start any better!
ARUGULA PINEAPPLE MORNING KICK 🌿🍍🌺
Though many people might not think of arugula as a smoothie ingredient, it is a super delicious, nutty, and antioxidant-rich addition to your morning drink. Give it a go and be amazed by it's wonderful added flavor. Not a fan of arugula or a green taste, use more spinach instead.
INGREDIENTS (SERVES 2 FOR BREAKFAST)
1 cup spinach
1 cup arugula
Fresh mint to taste
Fresh turmeric and ginger to taste
1 banana, frozen to add extra creaminess and chill the smoothie
2 to 3 passionfruit
1.5 cup pineapple
1/2 avocado
2 tbsps extra virgin coconut oil
2-3 cup water
Optional toppings: chia seeds and goji berries
DIRECTIONS
- Blend arugula, spinach, mint, and water until smooth. Add remaining ingredients and blend again. If the smoothie is too thick, add more water and blend again until smooth. If you have a high-speed blender you can throw in everything at once.
- Optional: Top with chia seeds and goji berries or other superfoods/toppings you like.
HAPPY SUNDAY FUNDAY!!!!
