Time 6m

Yield 2 cups, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup almond milk (or a mixture of almond and coconut milk)
1/4-1/2 cup frozen chopped spinach
3 -4 large strawberries (frozen or fresh)
1/2 banana (frozen or fresh)
2 -3 tablespoons raw almond butter

Steps:

  • Put everything into a blender and blend until your preferred consistency.
  • I typically buy my fruits and vegetables frozen because I find it easier to just have them on hand - and this way I'm not dealing with stuff going bad before I'm able to use it. But, when buying frozen fruits, make sure that there is no added sugar. This will just lead to a sugar crash. I use Blue Diamond Almond Milk and Coconut Milk blend because I like the flavor of coconut milk, but regular almond milk is great, too.
  • The almond butter is a great source of protein and healthy saturated fat. This will both provide you with energy and help you to feel full later into the day.

SPINACH & STRAWBERRY SMOOTHIE

Here's another healthy breakfast recipe that we've created for Fertility Road magazine. For those that are short on time in the morning, this quick and simple smoothie recipe is the perfect fertility boosting breakfast option. Citrus fruits like oranges are one of the best sources of vitamin C, which is vital to your fertility-enhancing diet. They also contain potassium, calcium, folate and B vitamins, which are all important nutrients in the conception process and can help you get pregnant by regulating ovulation. Strawberries are also loaded with vitamin C and folate, and are good at protecting eggs from damage and aging due to their high levels of antioxidants. They have also been linked to naturally increasing a woman's libido. Spinach is high in folate, which has been shown to improve ovulation.
