This citrus infused breakfast drink is high in vitamin C and is sure to start the day off right! A low calorie Sunrise Smoothie is on the menu this morning.

This delicious Sunrise Smoothie is high in vitamin C and calcium -- all packed into a low-calorie breakfast smoothie! Recipe at livelaughrowe.comDelicious Sunrise Smoothie — high in vitamin C too!

If there is one thing I enjoy during the summer, it’s a smoothie. I’ve enjoyed them for breakfast, a mid-afternoon snack and sometimes even for a lunch.  I love that there is so many options to a smoothie — milk, ice, adding a powder protein, fresh fruits, frozen fruits and more.  The options are pretty much endless.

This delicious Sunrise Smoothie is high in vitamin C and calcium -- all packed into a low-calorie breakfast smoothie! Recipe at livelaughrowe.comIt’s a win-win when they’re high in vitamin C and you can hit a large percentage of your daily calcium goal too.  On some diets, smoothies can take a turn for the worst…. let me me explain…

So, I recently learned that on Weight Watchers, the points in drinks (i.e. smoothies) are calculated differently.  The reasoning is that the fruit isn’t being chewed since it’s being processed to drink.  And a drink it consumed much more quickly than a fruit we snack on.  This was almost devastating news to me.  I love making smoothies at home and what I thought was a 4 point smoothie jumped up to 7 points.

Recipe at livelaughrowe.comWith that being said, this Sunrise Smoothie is 12 points on the Freestyle program.  I wouldn’t drink a 12 point breakfast, but occasionally you might want to splurge (wink).

    This smoothie looks delicious, Kelly. I would prefer sunrise smoothie for my kids. Vitamin C is an additional benefit.

    If you delete the walnuts and use plain non fat yogurt would it bring the points down?
    Thanks. I am enjoying the strawberry gram cracker frozen delights!

    I’m not an authority,p by any means, but from what I’ve seen on a WW FB site I follow, changes to lower the impact of any ingredients, can change/lower the point value. You might investigate milks and their values, too … Ultimately this looks and sounds WESOME, and I would probably splurge at least once to have this gem! Thanks, Kelly!
