Learn how to make 5 different fun and healthy breakfast smoothies! These cool, refreshing smoothies are my go-to start to a summer day.
Let’s eat the rainbow! Or, with these healthy breakfast smoothies, drink the rainbow through a straw (or scoop it up with a spoon… how you like to enjoy your smoothie is really up to you).
How to Meal Prep Healthy Breakfast Smoothies
Today we’re continuing our “grab & go” series with Almond Breeze. The idea with these breakfast smoothies is that you assemble all of your fruits & vegetables ahead of time so that your morning smoothie is fast and easy to make. Chop up your fruit (and veggies if you want a green one), and pack them away in freezer-safe containers or baggies – I made enough for 5 days a week – because weekends are for waffles.
Add in some superfood fun if you like, all of these are optional, but they’re tasty nutritional additions to play around with in a breakfast smoothie. I like to add a scoop of nut butter to make my smoothie more filling, so I stay satisfied till lunch:
Pour in enough almond milk to get your blender moving – and then go get moving! It’s time to start the day :). Happy Monday!
And if you love breakfast smoothies…

Healthy Breakfast Smoothies
Author: Jeanine Donofrio
Recipe type: Beverage, breakfast
- big handful of strawberries, sliced
- ¼ cup dried goji berries
- 1 peach, sliced
- handful of raspberries
- ½ tablespoon almond butter
- slices from ½ of a large mango
- 1 peach, sliced
- 1 teaspoon maca powder
- slices from ½ of a large mango
- handful of fresh spinach
- 1-2 teaspoons matcha
- ⅓ cup tart cherries
- ⅓ cup blueberries
- ½ – 1 tablespoon raw cacao powder
- Assemble ½ banana into each freezer container (or freezer safe baggie). Add fruits/vegetables, then place your containers into the freezer until you’re ready to blend each one.
- Blend each smoothie with a few pieces of ice and ½ cup to ¾ cup almond milk (enough almond milk to get your blender blade moving).
- Blend in “extras” (goji berries, almond butter, maca, matcha, cacao) at the end.
I use a Vitamix – if your blender isn’t as powerful, let your frozen smoothie ingredients thaw at room temp for just a few minutes.
