5 Smoothie Recipes I've Been Loving Lately
As the weather starts to get warmer, I’ve been craving smoothies in the morning.
They’re refreshing, healthy, and a great way to get your fruits and veggies in early in the day.
I honestly was never a huge smoothie lover growing up, but after we got a NutriBullet for our wedding a few years ago, I try to use it as much as I can.
Pinterest has been a great place to find unique and delicious smoothie recipes. The great thing about smoothies is you really cannot go wrong and they take less than 5 minutes to whip up! You really don’t need an official smoothie recipe; just grab a bunch of ingredients in your fridge and you’re bound to make something delicious.
Here are 5 smoothie recipes that I’ve been loving lately:
{ONE} Green Apple Smoothie
Ingredients:
1 green apple (chopped)
Spinach
1 frozen ripe banana
1 cup of unsweetened almond milk
Optional: chia and flax seeds
{TWO} Strawberry Banana Smoothie
Ingredients:
1.5 cups of strawberries
1 frozen ripe banana
2/3 cup of unsweetened almond milk
1 cup of ice
{THREE} Spinach & Strawberry Smoothie
Ingredients:
Spinach (about 2 cups)
Strawberries (about 1 cup)
Blueberries (1 handful)
Honey (a tablespoon or two)
Water & ice until desired consistency
There is no specific recipe for this; I usually just wing it!
{FOUR} Pineapple Raspberry Smoothie
Ingredients:
Frozen pineapple
Frozen raspberries
Spinach (about 2 cups)
Water & ice until desired consistency
There is no specific recipe for this; I usually just wing it!
{FIVE} Forever Young Smoothie
This may be cheating a little bit, but I’ve definitely grabbed pre-cut, ready-to-go smoothie packets from the grocery store. Campoverde’s Forever Young smoothie mix is one of my favorites. To make it a bit healthier, I’ll add spinach and water to the mix instead of almond milk or juice.
