Quick and easy Blueberry Banana Oats Smoothie to make busy mornings breakfast in a snap!
“Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.” This is a phrase we hear from nutrition experts over and over again. It is one my son has been repeating a lot lately. I believe 4th-grade health class has something to do with it. And yes, we all know it is important. But, I am going to be honest. It is the one meal of the day I struggle the most with.
I am not much of a morning person and my energy levels are pretty much non-existent until like 11:00 am when it’s practically lunchtime. So, I tend to rush through my mornings by drinking coffee, which gives me only enough energy to prepare a quick breakfast for the kids and drive them to school. By the time I get back, I sit down to work and forget that I have yet to eat breakfast until it’s already too late.
This year I’m trying to do better. I have made it my goal to start creating healthier habits for myself and one of those habits include never skipping breakfast.
Mornings are fast, too fast. Between getting ready for your workday and preparing the kids for school, there isn’t much time to create the flavorful, fulfilling breakfast your family deserves. McCormick Good Morning breakfast is a breakthrough line of products to help you do just that.
Smoothies have been my saving grace and are really helping me stick to my goal. Smoothies are quick, easy and delicious! I don’t need to invest a lot of time or energy into making them which ensures that I always have my cup filled before heading out to the school drop offline.
