Smoothies are a great way to get a lot of nutrients…through a drink! I have been experimenting with smoothie recipes lately and have found some great tasting ones that will keep you full for hours. I like to drink smoothies for breakfast and take them along with me to class. They are also great for snacks or desserts. With Spring Break just around the corner, these smoothies will be perfect to add to any meal.
1. Tropical Smoothie
1 cup of coconut Greek yogurt
Mixed frozen fruit (pineapple, mango, strawberry)
1 cup of coconut water
Optional: add protein powder (unflavored)
2. The Green Smoothie
1 cup blueberry yogurt
Mixed frozen fruit (blueberry, strawberry, mango)
1 cup of coconut water
1 whole banana
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
Spinach (I usually put a handful in at first, then more to turn it the desired green color)
3. Strawberry Banana
1 cup strawberry yogurt
Mixed frozen strawberries
1 whole banana
1 cup almond milk
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
For all of the smoothies, just add to the blender and mix until creamy! You can add more liquid if it is too icy or add ice for a thicker consistency!
XOXO,
