General health Nutribullet smoothie recipes/advice for a beginner?

My wonderful girlfriend got me a “Magic Bullet” blender for Christmas this year, and I think that this is going to be a real game changer for me (with the help of you lovely people)

I’ve been thinking about smoothies as a way to get a healthy and quick breakfast, and enjoy a nice filling “snack” here and there as well. I’ve always been the kind of person to skip breakfast, but I’m at a point where I see the effects of not eating and want to change that.

I’m 20 and working as a plumbing apprentice. I’m also skinny because of a slightly above average metabolism. My day consists of 8-10 hours of physical labor and mental hurdles. You can probably see why I want to start eating breakfast, lol! I’m really looking for something that will fill me up, keep me energized up until lunch time, and maybe help me hit that caloric overload I need to put on some pounds.

What I’ve got so far is as follows: • water for my base • frozen fruits/veggies •nuts/oats/seeds of some sort • protein powder • misc?

I appreciate any and all advice, recipes, or recommendations you guys are willing to provide to me. Like I said I think this beautiful little machine is going to be a complete game changer for me, so thanks all in advance🤙

When I want something a little sweet- I do half a frozen banana, half a cup of Greek yoghurt, 1 scoop of chocolate protein whey and 2 tablespoons of pb2 powder handfuls of ice and a little water or milk to thin it out
