From oats to flaxseed and more, there are so many ingredients you can include in your healthy breakfast smoothie to make it enriched with protein.

The presence of protein in meals also regulates the production of the hunger hormone ghrelin, thus making it ideal for those watching their weight. These three protein-rich smoothie recipes are quick and simple to whip up for the first meal of the day.
