- Protein.
- A bit of carbs.
- Healthy fats.
And yes... a proper hit of caffeine.
All blended in your Thermomix and ready in minutes.
Why You'll love this smoothie:
1. It Replaces Your Coffee
Instead of drinking coffee on an empty stomach (hello jitters + cortisol spike), you're pairing caffeine with protein and nutrients.
That means: Smoother energy, less of a spike-and-crash, better focus, more stable blood sugar.
2. It Has Proper Protein
Protein in the morning is non-negotiable if you:
• Want to stay full
• Want to reduce cravings
• Care about body composition
• Don't want to snack by 9:30am
This isn't a fruit-heavy sugar bomb. It's balanced.
3. A Bit of Carbs = Fuel
You don't need to fear carbs in the morning.
A small portion of fruit or oats:
• Fuels your brain
• Supports training (if you exercise early)
• Helps prevent energy dips
Why I Love This for Busy Mornings
This is exactly why this smoothie became a staple in my routine, because mornings don't slow down, and neither do you. It's the kind of breakfast you can drink one-handed, take in the car, sip during school drop-off, or have between meetings — and it blends in under 60 seconds. No cooking. No sink full of dishes. No lining up for a second coffee. Just one quick blend, one cup, and you're fuelled, caffeinated and out the door.
1. Add banana, protein powder, ice cubes, dairy-free milk/dairy milk, collagen, reishi, espresso coffee, and Blend /45 sec
2. To serve in a glass with ice.
