If you don’t always feel like eating breakfast, this healthy banana strawberry and almond smoothie is an incredibly delicious, creamy alternative. Think of it as your breakfast in just a glass! The almond extract is optional, but it lightens up the flavor and makes it taste like a treat. Fell free to use raspberries or blackberries if you don’t have strawberries at hand.
