Hey! I'm Hannah, and for years, my go-to breakfast has been a smoothie. Like this one:

I'm not a huge breakfast person, but I do like having something in the morning to get my metabolism going and keep me full until lunch — and smoothies get the job done. Growing up, I would use my mother's NutriBullet to make them. But when I moved into my own apartment, with my laundry list of other expenses, I just couldn't justify dropping $70 on a blender.

...then just take the single-serving container to go:

Perfect for my commute to work!

BTW: I decided to pour my smoothie into another to-go cup I had at home, but you could totally drink your smoothie in the same bottle you used to blend it. (The blender also comes in seven different colors.)

Since I've started using the Oster My-Blend, I've not only saved money, but I've also consolidated my morning routine.

A week's worth of ingredients for my favorite banana-and-almond-milk smoothie costs me less than $5. Plus, I save a ton of time since I'm no longer waiting in line at a smoothie shop or making myself a more complicated breakfast at home. I keep all of my ingredients in one place, throw them into my blender, and my breakfast is ready pretty much instantly.
