Blueberry Maca Smoothie Recipe

Happy Monday hustling humans! If you follow me on Instagram you've probably noticed that I've been sippin' on a new breakfast smoothie lately. Many of you have asked me to share what's in my cup so you'll find the recipe down below. Honestly this smoothie is great for any time of day. I've just gotten into the habit of drinking it in the A.M. because some of the benefits of maca include increased energy and reduced stress-hormone levels... both of which sound good to me.

Personally, I don't count calories or macros. I never have and I don't see myself doing it anytime soon. However some people do, especially when they're preparing for a specific event or pursuing a specific physique, so I thought it might be helpful to include the nutrition information.

My motto: focus on how you feel. There's no problem with having aesthetic goals, but never let numbers define you. Not in school. Not on the scale. Not in your food.

All love always xx
