Healthy Smoothie Breakdown

This picture shows what I normally add to my smoothie: Greek yogurt, blackberries, raspberries, blueberries,banana, kiwi, strawberries, flax seed, spinach, Good Belly Probiotic in Blueberry/ Acai, splash of orange juice

I normally make my smoothie in the morning but drink it either late morning or mid-afternoon. It's a definite meal substitute. Don't worry if your smoothie looks disgusting- brown or green color- it's super healthy and delicious!
