This smoothie makes a great breakfast and takes only minutes to make. I usually have all the ingredients available as staples in my kitchen.
Ingredients:
Large handful fresh spinach (at least a cup)
1 ripe banana (peeled)
1/3 cup Bob's Mills Muesli or fresh Gluten free oats
1 scoop protein powder (Amazing Greens or Warrior brands)
1 tsp ground flaxseed
3/4 cup Lactaid milk (or milk substitute)
Blend all ingredients until smooth and enjoy.
Why this fits into my diet: To stay in remission from Crohn's I avoid all gluten and corn, and gluten and corn derivatives. Bob's Mills uses gluten free oats. The protein powders are free from starches. Some protein powders contain malto-dextrin which is glutinous. I am lactose intolerant so I use the lactaid milk or almond milk. Flaxseeds, which are gluten free, add a nice amount of fiber.
