Banana Mocha Breakfast Smoothie

I thought I would share this recipe to get you started this week!  I mentioned last week that I found several great smoothie recipes on Cooking Light.  I was anxious to start trying them because I need some healthy morning drinks to start my day with.

I love that with smoothies they can easily be frozen so that you can drink them throughout the week.  I typically use these Ball freezer storage cups to store my smoothies.  When I am getting ready in the mornings, I sit one out and it’s typically ready to go by the time I am on my way to my destination or when I get there.  I have always used the 8oz Ball Containers; however, I was excited to find a 16oz version at my grocery store this past week.  The link shows you them on Amazon; however, at Walmart I can find them for $2-3, much cheaper there.

For the breakfast smoothie recipe, I adapted it a bit from the original based on some of the reviews on it.  It did have a strong kick of banana but it was good and filling!

Enjoy this healthy morning start!
