Since October last year this has been my breakfast every day with very few exceptions. It is filling because it has protein powder in it and it has a bit of sweetness from the berries and the Stevia leaf. During my first 8 weeks of elimination diet I also had one of these in the afternoon.
Here is what is in my smoothie now:

Half a glass of water (my water glass holds a little more than 1 1/4 cup of water)
1-2 tbsp coconut milk
1 tbsp flax seed oil
1 scoop of pea protein powder
1/4 tsp stevia leaf
2 drops of vitamin D
A handful of mixed organic frozen berries that I get at the farmer's market or at Trader Joe's
You can find most of the products here
I am using green Stevia leaf which is not nearly as processed as the white stuff. It tastes better too. I got mine at Mother's market.

I put everything into my Vitamix and then.... ready for it?

Then I make myself a hot cup of herbal tea. Usually in a mug, but the cup is much prettier in a photo

These are the herbal teas I alternate between.

The cranberry is my most favorite. I just love the taste of cranberry. You can find the teas here

I also take a variety of supplements as well as a spoonful of fermented cod liver oil. Yes, you heard that right. Me. Taking fermented cod liver oil. I did a bit of research after coming across this article, and this is the best one out there from what I can tell and it doesn't taste completely awful.

This keeps me full until lunch. It's so easy because I don't have to think about what to make for breakfast and I feel pretty good about what is in my smoothie.I get some warmth from the tea and lasting energy from the cod liver oil. On the rare occassion that I don't have a smoothie, it's because we are either traveling or we make these
