You probably don’t want to have rum with breakfast on an average weekday morning, but that doesn’t mean you’re free to’t enjoy apaleopina colada smoothie in the a.m.
This is the perfect refreshment of your paleo smoothie routine if you’re getting bored of your same old go-to recipes.
Start your day off like a party and treat yourself to an umbrella-adorned coconut-pineapple-flavored breakfast that will transport you to a warm sandy beach.
Rebecca Firkser/Eat This, Not That!
Blend freshly frozen pineapple (which we think is much more flavorful than the packaged fruit) with canned coconut milk, lime juice, and half a medjool date.
Top it with fresh pineapple chunks or fresh cherries instead of Maraschino, and you’ve got yourself on island time.
While alcohol isn’t forbidden on the paleo diet, paleo purists would tell you it’s technically not allowed because it is both processed and a toxin.
And truth be told, whatever health and personal goals you are looking to achieve by going paleo, alcohol won’t really help you get there.
However (with a capital H), we all have lives filled with social gatherings with friends and family, and you might want the option to enjoy a cocktail from time to time.
If you’re hosting such a gathering, you’re able to use this smoothie as an easy mixer base for an as-paleo-as-cocktails-get pina colada.
Spirits are usually low in carbohydrates, so as long as you keep the rest of your cocktail reasonably clean and low carb, you’re free to indulge in an alcoholic treat from time to time.
From breakfast to cocktails, this is one healthy breakfast smoothie that can actually double as a mocktail and a cocktail.6254a4d1642c605c54bf1cab17d50f1e
