Mornings can be so busy! You don’t always have time to make a delicious breakfast because you don’t have the time or the energy. You know as well as I do that stopping at the donut shop for a coffee and donut is not only not nutritious, it’s not an option when you have food allergies.
Smoothies are a great alternative! They are quick and extremely easy to make and consumer! You can drink it on the way to work and will fill you up far better than a donut!
Strawberry Pineapple Smoothie (Dairy Free/ Vegan/ Paleo/ Refined Sugar Free)
1 c. strawberries
1 c. pineapple
1 kiwi-peeled
1/4 c. raw cashews (or cashew butter)
2 Tbsp chia seeds (or 1 Tbsp. ground chia)
1-2 tsp. maple syrup (or to taste)
3/4 c. milk alternative
1/2 c. water (or ice depending on the strength of your blender)
Place all ingredients into blender. Blend until smooth. Enjoy! Makes two servings.

This looks delicious Sandi! I have never combined pineapple and strawberries in a smoothie together, but this combo sounds great. Love that you’ve thrown some chia seeds in there too!
Thanks Kyra! Yes you chia seeds add fiber and healthy fats š

Sounds super refreshing! I’ve made something similar, but haven’t tried throwing in cashews or cashew butter – what a fun addition to a smoothie. This would definitely be a great breakfast =) Thanks so much for sharing this at Healthy Vegan Fridays – this recipe is going to be featured this week.
