The Improvisational Chef Has Breakfast
I can't remember who I mentioned this to, so I'll post it for anyone to grab --
my breakfast smoothie recipe:
nonfat Greek yogurt (3/4 cup) (I use Fage 'total 0%')
1 small ripe banana
a splash (or two) of orange juice
several ice cubes
blend at high speed in a blender or food processor.
I've also made it with strawberries -- slightly sweeter, and a prettier color -- and have some kiwis I plan to try this week. You can use regular yogurt, but I really like the tartness and texture of Greek yogurt with the fruit.
For someone like me, who doesn't get enough fruit in her diet (veggies, yes, but not fruit) this is a really perfect meal. And if you dress it up with a splash of champagne and a garnish, it's great for a brunch!
