It's what's for breakfast

So, I started my picking on my husband. It's ok, he likes it. I used to always eat breakfast. Ok, true, I was pregnant or nursing and always starving. Now, I have gone back to coffee and maybe a couple of bites of fruit.
Obviously, that has lead to snacks of candy and indulgent lunches. The last two mornings I have jumped on the smoothie wagon. This morning, I took my husband with me. I made his pretty sweet because he likes things fairly sweet and with soy yogurt due to his extreme lactose issues. I realized if I want to do smoothies, I am going to need a bunch more frozen fruit.
But, it was super easy.
Blender, yogurt, frozen mango, frozen blueberries, banana, OJ, agave nectar - ta da.

But, I only have one blender. So, if the dishwasher doesn't get run one day, that will be a problem. And, I think smoothies look kind of gross. Tasted good though.

Oh, for those who don't use agave nectar as a sweetener, I love it. I does not have a flavor like honey which sometimes I think is a little strong (though in a peanut butter banana smoothie, honey is awesome). I get it at Whole Foods and use it in a lot of things. There are also darker and less filtered agave nectarwhich can be used in place of maple syrup.
