This avocado spinach smoothie is a high protein vegan breakfast inspired by Ben Greenfield ? a nutrition and fitness expert, triathlon and Spartan Race competitor, as well as New York Times Bestseller! So I think we can trust that it?s going to be pretty darn healthy!

It?s definitely quick and easy too, on top of being vegan, which is great.

It?s Ben?s new daily breakfast and he swears it makes him feel full straight away without being drowsy and keeps him going all day long.

We have added a small amount of syrup to his healthy avocado smoothie, to add some sweetness. Ben?s original recipe is VERY SERIOUS and not for the faint of heart.

But seeing as we are just trying to improve our day to day health (not compete in Spartan Races!), we thought we could get away with a bit of extra sugar!
The avocado spinach smoothie is especially good for people who have little to no time in the morning and want to make sure they get all the important macro and micro nutrients to set them up for the day.

One serving contains around 450 calories, a big ol? meal and (almost) enough to keep you going till lunch time. If you think it?s too much for you, just make two servings out of it!

It makes a great post workout smoothie too, because it contains plenty of protein and carbs!
