We've all been there. You're crunched for time and didn't get a chance to meal prep this week. Now, you have three meetings scheduled before noon: you know you need to grab something easy and nutritious to power your morning. That's where your new favourite Keto Smoothie recipe comes in! The ketogenic diet focuses on high-fat meals, that also combine protein and (hopefully) some vegetables that all fit within your carbohydrate intake for the day. However, it is essential that you don't rely on snack-packs of bacon to get you through the day. Including smoothies that are high in plant fibre, fat and protein, can keep you fuller, longer! Choose healthy fats like coconut, avocado, or even try adding a liquid Omega-3 supplement to make this an inflammation-busting smoothie!
