Smoothies for breakfast just got better. This one has a frozen waffle, blueberries and maple syrup blended right into it. It tastes like blueberry pancakes! The best thing? It’s made it a single-serve grab-and-go blender. This post sponsored by Stonyfield Greek Yogurt.
I’ve never been a breakfast smoothie person. Even though they’re full of great ingredients, they aren’t filling enough.
That’s why I add fiber-rich carbohydrates to my morning smoothie.
A More Filling Smoothie
Basically, I add a frozen multigrain waffle to the blender along with the yogurt, fruit, and spinach. It fills me up and keeps me full until lunchtime. It’s so much better than snacking throughout the morning.
For this version of my healthy smoothie, I went with classic pancake flavors. So you have greens and yogurt (like any healthy smoothie) and then I added the frozen waffle, blueberries, and maple syrup. It tasted just like blueberry pancakes!
Smoothie On The Go
The recipe serves one. I make it in my Single-Serve Hamilton Beach Blender. This gadget makes quick breakfasts so easy. The blender makes one smoothie. Take the cup off the blender and pop on the travel lid. It fits in my car’s cup holder. It’s so convenient to blend and then immediately take it wherever I’m going. It’s even kid friendly.

Rust says
Since blueberries are my alltime favorite smoothie ingredient, it’s because you have blueberries …but i love the idea of adding the multigrain waffle for fiber! I will have to try this.
Christine Pittman says
Thanks Rust! If you try it, let me know what you think.
Carol at Wild Goose Mama says
I would have thought you were nuts with adding the waffle except I added quick oats to a smoothie this past weekend—-Wow. I love it. Good idea. Your little girl is toooo cute.
Dana says
How genius to add a waffle to a smoothie. For a smoothie with greens, it doesn’t look green. I could get into that!
