I am not really a smoothie person, are you? I know they can be loaded with hidden calories, and if I am going to drink my breakfast, I would rather it be coffee. But- I tried this recipe for yesterday’s breakfast. It was good! And it was filling! It kept me full until lunchtime! I only had the dark agave nectar on hand, but that doesn’t make a difference, I am sure. This had a few more calories than I am used to eating at breakfast, but it was a nice change.
