20 Delicious and Healthy Smoothie Recipes

8 May, 2015 by Giselle Rochford 34 Comments

Hey Friends! How’s it goin?

I know that Spring officially started a long time ago, but it hasn’t really been consistently warm in my neck of the woods until recently. If you follow me on Instagram, you’d know that I only just had my first smoothie bowl of the season earlier this week, and I was super excited about it. Although I have smoothies all through winter, my smoothie intake always increases when it gets warmer, and I get more excited about trying different healthy smoothie combinations.

In my opinion, the perfect healthy smoothie has to have some kind of veggie and usually at least one kind of fruit. Other things like protein powder and superfoods are completely optional. Oh, and of course, the smoothie has to be creamy and delicious. So today, I wanted to share some of the healthy smoothie recipes I’ve found around the blogosphere, that I can’t wait to feast on for the rest of spring and summer.

    Am I a fan of smoothies… is that a rhetorical question?! 😛 Smoothies all day, erryday. Seriously. I’ve had days where I eat them for breakfast and lunch if I don’t feel like cooking, but they’re so perfect because they satisfy both hunger and thirst and you can get a tonne of nutrition in there without feeling bogged down. Thanks for including me!
