“Many people don’t eat the recommended amount of fruits and vegetables. Making a fruit smoothie is an easy way to increase your produce consumption because these drinks often contain multiple servings of fruit and sometimes vegetables as well. Unlike fruit juice, smoothies also provide fiber, because you use the whole edible portion of the fruit. Fruit smoothies typically contain significant amounts of folate, vitamin C, and potassium, because fruits are good sources of these nutrients. These smoothies can also provide other essential nutrients.” – Living Strong
After reading this article I became a smoothie lover. I have noticed the difference in my energy level through the day and drinking a smoothie daily has made a huge difference. Here is a roundup of some my favorite smoothie recipes for your enjoyment.
Key Lime Pie Protein Smoothie | The Seasoned Mom Sweet and tart mix with a tinge of crunchy in this protein smoothie inspired by key lime pie. It makes a healthy unique breakfast or a guilt-free afternoon snack.
This is a very good roundup! I’ll probably be pinning several of thsee 🙂 I also read that same info about not getting enough produce, and that’s how I got started with green smoothies. Now, I just can’t live with my smoothie for lunch! I also wrote a post about smoothies (great minds think alike!) with all the tips I learned after nearly 3 years of making them.
Thanks for the roundup! I am always looking for new smoothie recipes. I try to eat local as much as possible, which means I freeze tons of local fruit all season long. Then in the winter, it is smoothie time baby!! So I am always looking for new, delicious smoothies to add to my rotation. Cant wait to try some of these!
OH MY these all sound so amazing..I am stuck in the same boring flavor for my smoothie..they are so great for getting your nutrition needs in..thanks for sharing these..I will be trying them!1
Making healthy green smoothies has really helped me increase the amount of greens I have. These are yummy mixes. One of my favorites is peaches with spinach, almond milk and green tea.
