Dr. Hyman’s Green Breakfast Smoothie

Ready In 5 minutes
Serves 1

This is probably the healthiest smoothie in the whole world. After giving up sugar for long periods of time, I find that I don’t need to have sweet shakes in the morning. Instead, I crave nutrient dense foods that fill me up and keep me going for hours. This smoothie, from my new book Eat Fat, Get Thin, is the best way to start your morning. Add a few berries if you’d like it to be sweeter.
