Another great breakfast smoothie idea is this Fresh Orange Smoothie, it tastes just like Orange Julius!
One look at this Breakfast Power Smoothie and I know what you’ll say – it looks gross. Sorry about this recipe which isn’t the most visually appealing one I’ve featured, but it’s such an important recipe to me personally – so have to share!
You see, I’ve always been notorious for skipping breakfast, which has always led me eating all-the-things by lunchtime. With the new year, many are making those resolutions to eat better and live healthier, and this Breakfast Power Smoothie recipe does fit so well with that.
While this smoothie drink isn’t something I started when the new year hit {it’s been my morning staple for about 4 months now}, it’s an excellent one that many can start incorporating into their diets.
Since I started drinking this smoothie daily, not only haven’t I skipped breakfast, but it keeps me full and energized all morning {hence earning the ‘power smoothie’ title wholeheartedly}.
It’s very quick and easy to make, I have gotten into the great habit of blending myself one right before I head out the door for school drop off.
This Breakfast Power Smoothie recipe’s main ingredients are mixed frozen berries {mine usually include blueberries, strawberries and blackberries}, and spinach.
Others are water, chia seeds, flax seeds, greek yogurt and Simply Egg Whites. It’s literally packed with goodness!
The less than beautiful colour of this smoothie comes from the dark spinach and rich berries. I’ve made this smoothie so often than I don’t even measure, so sometimes if there’s more berries it’s more red and depending on the amount of spinach in my handfuls – more green.
I crave this Breakfast Power Smoothie each and every morning, it really is so delicious!

I would love to try the hard boiled eggs because it would make breakfast and lunches a breeze.
I can’t wait to try simply egg whites. A great source of protein for the whole family… and an easy way to disguise it when the kids are in a “mood”
I love their products makes eating healthier so much easier. I also love that I can stock up if I see a sale and freeze them.
I am making an effort to start the day off healthier and this would help out. I have not used egg whites in smoothies before.
I like to win because I eat eggs but never tried this product before!
I would love to win because I would like to make sure I have breakfast every morning, even if there isn’t enough time for it, so a smoothie with egg white and fruits would be awesome.
I love apple and ginger in my smoothies. Never thought of adding Egg Whites so would love to try those – great source of protein.
This is very similar to the smoothie I drink except I don’t defrost the berries and I’ve never had it with egg whites. That would be perfect though so I would get more protein. I want to win so I can get healthier and add egg whites to my smoothie everyday and not have to worry about not getting enough protein.
Such a great idea! Thanks!
I enjoy Burnbrae products, so this would be a very useful prize pack to win. I would like the Naturegg Simply Egg Whites the most, as I love to make omelets with it.
I’d love to win this as a huge part of my New Years Resolution is to eat/be heathier! I’d love to try the Breakfast Power Smoothie recipe!!! Looks and sounds delicious!

I like to eat eggs and would like to try the Simply Egg Whites
I’m most looking forward to getting more Burnbrae Farms products…we go through so much in our house that this would be a welcome win 🙂
I would love to be able to win so I can make meals a little quicker in the morning but not sacrifice nutrition and overall quality of the food I eat.
i’ld like to win so i can increase my egg intake
I love green smoothies but have not tried egg whites. Fat free though and has protein. Guess what I’ll be making tomorrow. I love this whole package very much.
