That being said, I'm a cereal kind of gal. Anything that's super quick and requires no brain power is perfect for me in the morning.
However, I have a super fast, easy breakfast smoothie recipe that I love. It's a fun way to wake yourself up (the sweet, fresh fruit as much as the sound of the blender!) even if you'd still rather be asleep.
...............................................................................................................................
Prep Time: 5 mins. Cook Time: 1 min. Price: $
...............................................................................................................................
1/2 cup frozen berries
1-2 bananas or fresh fruit of your choice
2 spoonfuls of nonfat Greek yogurt
1/2 cup orange juice
Ice (optional)
Get out a blender. Add the above ingredients in the order they are listed. Press the "smoothie" button or blend until the large chunks of fruit disappear.
Enjoy!

Tip:
To save on costs, buy large bags of frozen fruit. They won't break the bank and they last forever!
Why: Fruit smoothies are a super fun, easy way to start your day, especially for the busy college student. They only take about 5 minutes, and they're super healthy to boot.
Mess-ups and Missteps: In general, it's pretty hard to mess smoothies up. Still, in the past I've accidentally added too much ice--and almost jammed the blender.
Personally, I've found that the frozen fruit makes the smoothie cold enough for my taste, but if you like yours super cold, just slowly add the ice.
Enjoy!
KEEP ON COOKING!
Cannot wit to try this tomorrow morning! I have all of these goodies!
