Breakfast With My Teen (Can you Relate?)

I may only have about three minutes with my teenager in the morning, but our interactions are meaningful.  Many of you with teens will relate, I’m sure!

Also, last week I visited an elementary school and was floored by what the cafeteria was serving them.  Everything was beige!  A beige piece of chicken on a beige bun with beige home fries.  At lunch time I saw plenty of color though.  Half of them brought back bags of chitos from the lunch cafeteria.  It made me sad, and it made me run home determined to make this video!

You can feed your kids and yourself an abundance of nutrition in under two minutes! As I show you how to make this breakfast, don’t feel bad if your child’s breakfast does not look like this.  In my Eat Pray Get Well book I have been very honest about how poorly I fed my son when he was small.  Nothing but donuts, and cap’n crunch for breakfast.  We have come a long way.  I hope you enjoy this video.

Whats in the Juice (for two)

Cabbage – I don’t measure but it’s about 1 cup

1/2 Cucumber (sometimes we put zucchini)

Handful Spinach (you can use any green)

1 tablespoon Flaxseed

1 tablespoon Sea Moss – See my video on how to prepare it.

Berries

Naked Shake – we use both Vanilla and Chocolate

Ginger – just a small slice

Instructions

Mix all ingredients in a Vitamix or very powerful blender.  Without a powerful blender the texture may be undesirable due to the lack of ability to break everything down and make it smooth.  The last thing you want is vegetable chunks, a vitamix breaks everything down until it’s completely smooth and creamy.
