Making this smoothie is my favorite way to lighten up my morning breakfast routine without refined sugar or artificial sweeteners. Plain low-fat Greek yogurt creates a creamy consistency while the chia seeds help you feel fuller longer. The ginger beautifully complements the rest of the ingredients with its pleasant pepper bite while the pears balance it out with their sweetness.
Ready in just a few minutes, this is one smoothie you'll want to add to your breakfast routine.
