We all know that going out for a long day of adventuring with kids can be exhausting. If you are looking to boost stamina, energy and balance moods, so you can take on the world with your kids – then this rocking smoothie is the recipe is for you.
I am a mother of two, a detox specialist, a health coach and a runner, so having energy is KEY for me and making an energy packed smoothie is a great way to start the day so you can get out the door quick but still have your energy levels on FULL!
There are so many ways you can make smoothies, but the key ingredient is this: do not make a smoothie that is a dessert. You want a healthy fat, plant based protein, a low glycemic berry, a handful of greens and dairy free milk.
When you keep your smoothies low in glycemic index, not only will you be more energized, there will be fewer sugar highs and lows, and you will feel satisfied.
Here is the Parent on the Go – Super Energy Smoothie. Are you ready?
