Fat Burning Breakfast in Less Than 5 Minutes

(My Original Blog Post: http://mikeroussell.com/fat-burning-breakfast-in-less-than-5-minutes/)


Do you eat breakfast everyday? I hope so. Surprisingly the actual research on eating breakfast isn't that robust and some nutrition experts don't think that breakfast is that important. I really believe that a good healthy breakfast sets the stage for your day. It sends the message that you're going to do what it takes that day to eat right and do what you need to do in order to reach your fitness goals. Here what I had this morning (a slight variation on one of my long standing breakfast staples). This shakes comes in at just over 400 calories and can be consumed while driving to work or chasing around 2 year old twins trying to get them to put their diapers back on.

• 1.5 Cups Blueberries


• 1.5 Scoops Vanilla Protein Powder


• 1 TBSP Flaxseed Oil


• A Handful of Ice Cubes

Put it all in a blender, add 1-2 cups of water (less if you like a thicker shake), and blend until the ice is all crushed up.
