Is it OK to just have a smoothie for breakfast?
Summing it Up If you base your smoothie on protein and healthy fats instead of just sugar, and if you're one of the people who can feel satisfied on a smoothie all morning, then a smoothie can be a healthy breakfast choice. But just blending fruit and ice doesn't come anywhere near a Paleo breakfast.
Can I make a smoothie in the morning for lunch?
Place a thermos container in the freezer overnight. In the morning, fill it with your choice of smoothie and pack it into the lunch bag. It acts as a freezer pack, and by the time noon rolls around, the smoothie will be a perfect consistency. I like using thermoses to pack smoothies.
Is a protein smoothie healthy for breakfast?
If you're blending ice with fruit and almond milk, you may not be getting enough protein at all. Tip: As a general rule of thumb, aim for a protein intake in your breakfast smoothie of about 15 to 30 grams, depending on your size and activity level.
