How to make Zucchini Bread Smoothie Recipe - This delectable smoothie tastes just like zucchini bread but can be enjoyed without guilt. Full of fiber, protein, and healthy fat, it will sustain you for hours, making it an excellent breakfast option. Zucchini is rich in magnesium, and one serving contains 40 percent of the rDA of manganese, which supports the metabolization of proteins and carbohydrates. Gluten-free oats provide fiber and density, and the warming spices of cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove act as anti-inflammatories. The addition of almond butter not only boosts the delicious zucchini bread flavor, its monounsaturated fats also support heart health and reduce LDL (bad) cholesterol levels.
