Right now I am an extremely busy college student. Often times I feel like I barely have time to eat throughout the day. When I do, I resort to unhealthy fast food because it is the quickest thing nearby. What I have learned throughout my college years, was that smoothies are so easy to make and there are so many varieties you are able to create! I love buying fresh fruit from the store, preparing baggies filled with the fruit, and freezing them so they are ready to be made whenever I want! Not only are they fast and healthy, they are absolutely delicious. You will never get bored with smoothies because so many possible choices can be made! Here are some of my must-try smoothies, I hope you enjoy!
