]]> Recently, a pregnant student asked what she could eat to start the day that is quick,tasty and nutritious. Here is my recipe for my morning shake that I drink daily to jump start my day.

Antioxidant Smoothie

1 medium banana
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
2 TBS ground flaxseed
1/2 raw avocado
1 cup Sunrise Grower Organic Mixed Berries
2 cups Earthbound Organic Deep Green Blends
2 TBS Nutribiotic Rice Protein Powder

Here is the nutritional information for this vegan power shake:
Calories 527
Fat 24g (sat-2.8,poly 5.9,mom10.8,trans 0)
Cholesterol 0
Sodium 337mg
Potassium 1,472.2
Protein 39.5 g
Vitamin A 103.4 %
Vitamin C 125.3%
Calcium 60.2%
Iron 28.6 %

The organic mixed berries and greens are available at Costco. Although purchased fresh, I put the greens in the freezer.I mix all these ingredients in a Nutribullet, but I imagine it will mix well in any blender. This shake tastes great,takes 3 minutes to make, travels easily and offers so much nutrition in one glass. Try it-you’ll love it. (Pregnant or not)
