We are faced with tremendous pressure as we try and get through the day. As we work toward maintaining our careers and personal fitness goals, we are also called on to support our loved ones, whether our children, parents, or partners.

One of the great things about a vegan smoothie is that you can incorporate some power-boosting ingredients to help you pack an energy boost into your day. Since we all know that breakfast is an important meal, these smoothies have the component to help us get more done throughout the day. They are also straightforward to make, delicious and nutritious.

All you need to create these healthy smoothies is a blender or food processor.

Tip: Frozen berries and bananas are best for smoothies. Don’t throw all the almond milk in together. Instead, pour it gradually to ensure the consistency is just as you like it.

1.      Berry and Beetroot Smoothie

The combination of beetroot and berries ensures a boost of antioxidants. Adding rolled oats adds to the fiber content of the smoothie and provides the energy boost you crave.

1 cup berries of your choice

½ cup cooked beetroots

1 ½ cup almond milk

2 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp ginger

2.      Just Green Smoothie

Green smoothies can be pretty tricky, so don’t just throw anything you have in the blender. Otherwise, the chances are you won’t like the result.
