The Pot Guide and Mota Pot teams are back again with another cannabis-infused recipe from BLD (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner). This time, we have a recipe for a delicious, on-the-go smoothie. Note that you'll need to make your own cannabis-infused oil before you can successfully recreate our smoothie -- click here for the full recipe.
The word Breakfast literally means to break the fast. As your body pauses the intake of food, the metabolisms switch over to a “reserve” system of providing energy which quickly changes back after food has been ingested – typically in the morning. This is why breakfast is indeed the most important meal of the day.
This smoothie recipe that was included for breakfast is a favorite among the health conscience. It was designed to be a fully nutritious meal in a glass that still tastes good. Chalked full of vitamins and minerals this meal option is great before the morning walk with the dogs, or even after a rigorous workout.
