For this reason, and many more, they're great for breakfasts as they have dairy,fruits,nuts and many other healthy ingredients. All in all, a smoothie is a healthy and fulfilling start to your day.

Here are 5 of my favourite tried and tested nutrient-rich smoothies to kickstart your day.

1. BANANA-STRAWBERRY SMOOTHIE

These are the two main ingredients in this very refreshing smoothie. The base can be yogurt or milk of any kind. You can add various nuts, frozen berries etc to make it more interesting and tasty. The taste is sweet and a bit tangy. Plus, you’ll just love the pink colour coming from the strawberry. 

2. MANGO-ALMOND SMOOTHIE BOWL

This is a smoothie you can eat instead of drinking. It has a frozen fruit and yogurt base which gives a very creamy and frosty texture. You can add nuts, some dark chocolate and other ingredients of interest to give it a nice crunch. It’s like a healthy version of ice cream and much more flavourful in my opinion.

3. DATES, BANANA AND PEANUT BUTTER SMOOTHIE

The core ingredients of this smoothie just radiate richness. It is a very nutrient dense smoothie with a rich and creamy texture. The peanut butter proves to be a blissful addition to this mix, by breaking the sweetness of the other ingredients. The taste is absolutley heavenly. This recipe has the ability to keep you full at least till lunch if you have it for an early breakfast.

4. GREEN EVERYDAY SMOOTHIE

This smoothie, while being delicious, also proves viable for weight management. As the name indicates, it has green veggies like spinach and kale. That doesn't mean it can’t be made appealing by adding some chia seeds and honey for sweetness and crunch. It can best be consumed after a workout session.

5. PINEAPPLE-COCONUT SMOOTHIE

This recipe is packed with the tropical flavours of pineapple, coconut and banana. It won't be wrong to say it's a summer drink.  It has a very refreshing taste which instantly puts you in a better mood. It can also be enjoyed in various ways, by adding different ingredients which improve its taste even more. You can add more tropical fruits to increase its nutrient count even more.
