Breakfast of a Champion

Blueberry Kale Smoothie

Not only is this a great raw smoothie, it bodes for a great story.  This morning, I finished blending all of the ingredients, opened the top & attempted to remove the blender from its base to pour it into my glass……. uh forgot to unplug the blender, it went on of course on full speed….. THE TOP WAS STILL OFF. Needless to say I had a green smoothie concoction all over me, the walls, the side of the fridge, the floor, etc.  That made for a fun morning!  Also, in case you were wondering the smoothie does not taste at all how it looks, just drink it quick and don’t forget the top!

Oh yeah, and for the protein junkies, this does not have added protein, I supplemented with necessary amino acids to replace my required protein for the meal.
