Farmer's Breakfast Smoothie

 

This recipe is so quick and easy.  I'm barely awake, trudging my feet down to the kitchen while my husband is lifting weights in the basement, and I don't have to do anything more than throw a few ingredients into a blender and turn that baby on.

I love it because you can add some of the healthy stuff to it that you hate taking.  We sometimes add Omega-3 oil or liquid vitamins.

The recipe calls for raw egg yolks (totally optional, not everyone likes the idea of eating raw egg and I totally get it.  It used to freak me out, too.  And we only use raw egg yolks if they are from our chickens, thus we know how clean the eggs are/were.).  We usually cook the egg whites to give to the outdoor cat, Kitty, or save them for a recipe that we'll use that day (like icing for making gingerbread houses, which we seem to be doing every single day right now.)

2 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen, then thawed

2 ripe bananas

Plus - any optional vitamin/healthy stuff add-ins
