    I just love Breakfasts!!! To me it is the most important meal of the day. I just cannot skip one.

    But do we have the time to prepare one when we are running late to office..
    Or just preparing ourselves for back to school..
    Or when we just don't feel like cooking..

    Thanks to smoothies we don't have to worry about spending extra time just for making a healthy breakfast.

    This smoothie can be made well ahead of time, frozen and blended in a high power blender and TA DA your healthy breakfast is ready.

    To be honest with you all, smoothies are not something that I grew drinking up. I got to know about these amazing healthy dose in New Zealand, which is my home from past 3 years.

    So all the smoothie recipes that I am sharing all week long is inspired by the n number of pins that I keep pinning on Pinterest. Ofcourse all the recipes are my own recipes; the inspiration for which comes from Pinterest.

    If you have not tried smoothies yet I highly recommend you to give it a try. Its more like a healthier version of all your favourite drinks.

    One of my all time favourite fruit is watermelon. (Mango tops the list of my favourite fruit obviously!!). So when I found this fresh juicy watermelon in the local market and that too without making a hole in my pocket (yes!! it is that much highly priced here in Christchurch.. πŸ™ ) I just couldn't resist buying it. And after eating most of it as it is, I thought of using it in this Smoothie recipe as well.

    What is your favourite fruit.. Do comment below I would love to know.

    So coming to this recipe : It is basically two layered smoothies combined together to give the sunrise effect. So you just need some red-pink coloured fruits for the red layer and some orange-yellow coloured fruits for the yellow layer.

    You may use your favourite fruits to make the two layers..

    Here is the list of fruits you can use..
    RED Layer:
    Raspberry
    Strawberry
    Watermelon
    Cranberry and even
    Cherries

    Yellow Layer:
    Mango
    Orange
    Pineapple
    Peach
    Apricot

    And if I left out some fruits do let me know will include in this list.

    I happen to use a banana oats and chia seeds in all my smoothie recipes but you could skip or add any as per your choice.

    Without me blabbering any further lets jump to the recipe. Here is how I made it..

    But before that if you happen to try this smoothie or are interested in joining the #7daysmoothiechallenge then just tag me, tweet me or instagram me. I would love to follow you.

      I love breakfast too - it's my fav meal of the day - but your are right, unless there's something prepped it's hard to cook something up when you are in a hurry - and that's where this pretty smoothie comes in - what a delicious and pretty way to start the day!
