Introduction

This is my quick and easy breakfast. The berries and tea give you some nice antioxidants, the yogurt gives you probiotic bacteria and calcium, and flax for a bit of good fat and some omega-3 fatty acids.
You can substitute the cup of frozen blueberries for whatever fruit you like...mixed berries, mango, and peaches are all pretty good. Also, mix it up a bit with black tea or oolong tea instead of green. I use greek yogurt in this recipe because I like the taste and consistency of it much better than regular, but use what you like. The flax oil is completely optional; it tastes the same either way, but I like it. This is my quick and easy breakfast.

Ingredients

    - 1/2 cup brewed unsweetened green tea
    - 1 cup Frozen unsweetened blueberries
    - 1/2 cup vanilla greek yogurt
    - 1 tbsp Flax Oil
    - 1/2 tbsp honey

Directions

Throw it all in a blend and pulse until creamy-smooth. If you find it is too thick for your liking, thin it down with some water or fruit juice.
(I usually do not add the honey. The calorie count is only 290 w/o it.)
