Hearty Breakfast Smoothie

Looking for a break from your regular breakfast routine?  Looking for something healthy that will give you the energy needed until your next meal?  Look no further!  This smoothie was developed by a world renowned reflexologist, aromatherapist, licensed massage therapist and nutritionist.  Not to mention a dear friend of our families!  Thank you to Cecilia Salvesen for this great tasting morning pick-me-up!

Starting with a good blender is a must to making this smoothie!
Ingredients:
Blend until fairly smooth:
1 cup cold water
6 ice cubes
1/2 cup raw almonds
Add and blend well:
2 good sized handfuls of spinach
1 banana
1 apple, washed with the core removed and sliced, skin left on
2 heaping tablespoons honey
1 large carrot, rinsed, no need to peel
Add and blend well:
1/2 cup whole rolled oats (we like Bobs Red Mill but any will do:)
Make sure it's all blended well and then enjoy!  If you are making this for yourself, it will easily cover 2-3 morning breakfasts!  Just store the leftovers in a sealable container in the fridge!
